Share Articles or Video

Link to ProQuest  articles or videos so that they can be accessed on or off campus. The first step is to get a durable link for the article. For most databases, the URL you see in your browser address bar is a temporary link that will not provide access to the article for other users. The durable link will provide on campus access.

On & Off Campus

In ProQuest Research Library you can get a durable link for articles from:
