Q. How do I link library e-resource material to my Moodle page?

Using permalinks (stable URLs) from MUSCAT Plus and library databases are recommended for sharing links to library e-resources in Moodle. 

Below is an example of how to find the permalink in MUSCAT Plus:  

1. Locate the item you wish to link to. Click on the record. 

2. On the next screen, click on Permalink in the upper left-hand side. Click COPY THE PERMALINK TO CLIPBOARD. This copies the stable URL.      

3. Follow the directions posted in the IT department Moodle Knowledge Base for linking URLs in Moodle: https://it.sites.gettysburg.edu/knowledge-base/adding-web-links-to-a-moodle-course/. 

You may also need to locate the permalinks for resources found in our library databases.

EBSCO database example:   

1. Locate the item you wish to link to. Click on the title.

2. On the next screen, click the arrow icon (Share) in the upper right-hand side.
3. Click Create link. Then follow the same directions posted in the IT department Moodle Knowledge Base: https://it.sites.gettysburg.edu/knowledge-base/adding-web-links-to-a-moodle-course/
