Athenize Your Links

OpenAthens logo

Use the Athenizer to create links to library content.

Copy and paste a persistent link to an article, ebook, or film here to generate a link that will authenticate you when off-campus.

Have an old, proxied OCA link? The Athenizer will strip out the proxy string as well as adding OpenAthens information.

Be sure to TEST your links before sharing them.
