Persistent URLs in Databases

JSTOR calls PURL's Remote Access links. This is different than the stable URL that they provide in that it has the library's proxy log in added to the URL. To find the Remote Access Link follow these steps.

1. Select the title of the article you want to link to from the JSTOR results list.
2. On the left hand side of the page there should be two URLS. The first is the stable URL (notice that it does not have the proxy string attached). The second is the Remote Access URL and it has the proxy string already attached to it. This Remote Access URL is the one you want to grab and use so that folks will be prompted to log in using their Boise State credentials and have direct full text access. The image below shows where to look for the Remote Access URL in the lower left hand corner.
