Athenize your links

If you have a required readings for your students, the easiest way to make sure they find the right material is by giving them the link to the document. OpenAthens has an easy system to create links that are permanent.

Step 1: Deproxify your permalinks.

If you have proxy.ufv.ca:2048 or proxy.ufv.ca:2443 embedded in your links you need to get rid of it. (No proxy in your link? Skip to step 2.)

For example:

Link with Proxy: https://proxy.ufv.ca:2443/login?url=https://doi.org/10.1177/0044118X20984172
Link with Proxy removed: https://doi.org/10.1177/0044118X20984172

Step 2: Paste your URL or DOI in the box below.

 

 

Your results should look something like this:

Original URL:
https://proxy.ufv.ca:2443/login?url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1462474516641375

Proxy prefix removed (Step 1):
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1462474516641375

Athenized (Step 2):
https://go.openathens.net/redirector/ufv.ca?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjournals.sagepub.com%2Fdoi%2Ffull%2F10.1177%2F1462474516641375

 

If you don't have time to create permalinks for your reading list, UFV library will do it for you. Contact us for more details:

Permalinks provided by Databases

Some of our databases have permalink options within their platform. These links have been adapted for our new system and are ready to use.
