To link to an EBSCO eBook in your online courses or course shells so that your students can easily reach the intended resources, you must use a permalink, not the page URL.
1. Find an EBSCO eBook you wish to use in your course through the library catalog (see the Link to eBooks page for more information on this).
2. Click the title to view the catalog record.
3. Click on the link in the catalog record that reads EBSCO EBOOK: CLICK HERE TO ACCESS to access the detailed record page.
4. Find and click on the permalink button on the right side of the screen.
5. Copy and paste the permalink into your Canvas course.
An alternative method to using permalinks is to add a chapter of an EBSCO eBook to your Canvas course. Note that there is a limit to the number of pages you can download.
