Permalinks (also called stable links, persistent URLs, etc) are URLs that point directly to articles, ebooks, videos, and other materials in library databases. By placing these links in your D2L course you can easily direct your students to required course content.
Follow the steps on this guide to create permalinks to library resources. Unlike most webpages, the URL in your browser address bar will most often not work when linking to library resources.

EBSCO Discovery Service (OneSearch)
OneSearch includes most library resources on a single platform and is therefore the easiest way to create permalinks. Alternatively, if the item exists on a different platform, you may follow the platform specific (e.g., JSTOR, Proquest) instructions provided on this guide.
