Link to a Research Database

Note: Off-campus access is not available for a small number of research databases. When a database is not available off campus, a note displays in the left-hand column in the database list. In addition, a few databases have limits on the number of concurrent users. This information is noted in the column on the far right.

Follow these directions to create a persistent link to a library  research database within your Angel course.

1. Go to the library's homepage at http://lcc.edu/library
2. Click on Databases. The following page displays.

    3.   Click on the Subjects dropdown menu.

4. Click on a subject link. When you click on Business/Economics, for example, the
   following page displays:

Note: If students click on a database link on this page from off campus, an ID page prompts for their Tech User ID and password. When they submit this information, the database search page displays.

5. Click on the title of a specific database. (If you are off campus, you will be prompted for your Tech User ID and password. Submit this information. The database search page will then display.)
6. Copy and paste the URL for this page into your Angel course page.

Note: If you copy and paste the URL while you are on campus, you will need to add a prefix to the URL. The link will not work off campus unless the prefix is added. The directions explain how to add the prefix.
