Share Searches

You can share search results on or off campus, but there is an extra step to share off campus. 

On Campus Access

Search results create a durable URL, so once you've created a search that you want to share, you can just grab it to share on campus.

Off Campus Access

  1. Add the EZProxy prefix in front of the URL for off campus access directly in front of the bookmark URL with no spaces:  https://comlib.idm.oclc.org/login?url=

A search link accessible off campus should look like this:

https://comlib.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://research.ebsco.com/search/results?db=tma&expanders=fullText%2Cconcept&limiters=None&q=DE%20%22Bay%20of%20Pigs%20Invasion
%2C%20Cuba%2C%201961%22&searchMode=boolean&sort=relevance
