Linking to Sources in Britannica Academic

Follow the directions below to get links to articles or images from Britannica Academic that will work later and from off campus.

1. On the search results page, choose an article, image, or video.
   
   1. For articles, click on the title of the article to open the full article page.
   2. For images or videos, click on the Images tab or the Videos tab. Click on a small image or video to open the Media Preview pop-up box. Click the Media Details button at the bottom of the pop-up box to open the page for that image or video.
2. Copy the URL from your browser address bar.
3. Paste the URL into the Off-Campus Link Generator and edit it. Replace the first two dashes with periods, so that
   https://academic-eb-com
   becomes
   https://academic.eb.com
4. After you have replaced the dashes, click Create Link.
5. You will get a pop-up message that says, "That is a translated proxy URL and needs to be fixed. Click OK and we will fix it for you." Click OK.
6. Copy the new link that appears in the bottom box. Use this address when citing this source and to return to this page in the future.
7. Test your link! Paste the address into a different browser app (like Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) to make sure it works. You will be prompted to log in again in the new browser window.

If you plan to post this link in D2L Brightspace, read about linking to library sources in D2L first.
