What are permalinks?

Permalinks (persistent or permanent links) can link directly to

  • magazine title links in Flipster 
  • an ebook in Proquest, EBSCO or the library catalogue
  • a specific full-text article in a library database

Permalinks are useful because URLs (website links) can break over time, as sites are updated and content is moved around.
