Generate an OpenAthens Link

Need a persistent link for your PowerPoint, or Slides?  Do you need to embed links in BlackBoard?  Use this helpful tool to do just that.  Find your organization: type in Harper College.  Copy and paste the database URL you want to make persistent.  Press enter and your URL will be "Athenized" and ready to use!

Note: EBSCO, Gale, and ProQuest databases don’t need the redirect link. 

Note: Kanopy doesn't need the redirect link.
