Linking to Library Database Articles/Resources in Your Blackboard Course Page
You can link to full text articles/resources from library databases on your Blackboard course page. Do NOT, however, simply cut and paste the URL from the web browser while you are looking at an article. It is usually a session specific URL and will expire in a few hours or days.
Click here for step-by-step instructions for creating durable links on your Blackboard course page to the library's most popular databases. Contact Martha Dickens at Holly Library, (mdickens@abtech.edu; 828-254-1921, x302) or Instructional Support & Online Learning at instructionalsupport@abtech.edu (828-254-1921, x300) if you have questions or need assistance with this process.
