Copyright for Staff: Linking to Library eResources

Databases:

• contain journal articles, news, magazines and more.
• provide quality current as well as historical information.
• complement other sources of information including books and web searches.
  

• One of the easiest ways to provide your students with access to information, without the need for complex copyright attributions and notices, is to look at the online resources available from the Library web site. 

• Linking Blackboard to items in the Library's online resources is a quick and easy way to provide your students with access to information.  
• You can link to the library online resources directly from within your Blackboard course.  All you need is the URL.
• Linking avoids having to worry about normal copyright restrictions because you aren't making any copies.

Need some assistance to find information in the Library's online resources or not sure how to add the links? Contact the Library.
