This page provides instructions to help you create persistent URLs linking directly to an article in the following databases:

 

Make sure your persistent article links start with the following root URL:

                                           http://gsbproxy.stanford.edu/login?url=

The purpose of the root URL is to enable easy access to articles from off-campus.

 

ABI/INFORM Global and PsycINFO

1. Go to ABI/INFORM Global or PsycINFO and find your article. Get the Document URL link.

2. Add the root URL to the Document URL link.

For example:

http://gsbproxy.stanford.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/398627079?accountid=14026
