This assumes some knowledge of how links work, and how to insert links into HuskyCT. For instruction on how to use links in HuskyCT, contact the staff in the Instructional Resource Center.

The table below is broken down into three columns:

1. Resources: The links in this column go to the database, where you can search for articles.
2. How to link to specific items: Brief instructions and help pages
3. Screen shot (Where is the link/url I need?): Images of link location that you can copy/paste.

Special Considerations:

• If off campus, students will need to set up VPN or Proxy to use online journals/databases to see articles
• Not all searches within these journals/databases will provide full text, some only provide abstracts or bibliographic citations. If you can't see the full text, your students will not be able to see full text either
• Not all resources that provide persistant links are listed. The eJournal Locator is a good place to search for more resources. Email reserveservices@uconn.edu, if you think a resource should be added below.
