Permalinks

Permalinks, also known as stable URLs or pURLs, are links to articles in databases. They do not change, so they can be used in web sites or emails.

For more specific information on linking to articles in Blackboard, check out the Article Links in Blackboard section on the Faculty Resources research guide.

Creating a Link to a Licensed Article

1. Locate the article in one of the library’s databases.
2. Look for a stable URL for the article. This might be labeled any of:
   • stable URL
   • stable link
   • durable link
   • persistent URL (PURL)
   • permalink
   • Get Link
   • Share
3. Use the proxy link generator below to create a link that you can use in Blackboard or through any other site.
