It is important that, whenever possible, you use a link from a page on the library website in order to begin your research. Access to the library databases and electronic resources are made available due to financial and legal agreements between the libraries and multiple vendors. The vendors and publishers in charge of these resources need to know that you are affiliated with Wilson College in order to give you access to full-text PDFs and other resources, and the links on the library website are specially formatted to include information that connects to your Wilson College account.
For this reason, copying/pasting URLs from your browser when performing research in the library's electronic resources may not always work, as they may not contain all the information you need to access the material at a later time. Always look for a "permalink" or a "share" button in order to send yourself properly formatted URLs if you want to save a page to come back to later. If you have any questions about how to save library links or how to include links to library resources in your syllabus, Canvas course, or other places, please Ask a Librarian and we will gladly help you do this.
