Persistent Links - ACS

How To create persistent links to articles in ACS:

  1. Connect to ACS through the library website
  2. Find an article citation and highlight/copy its DOI Link
  3. Use the Link Converter to make the Persistent Link accessible to all WIU users:
    • Example: https://wiulibraries.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/pr700702r
  4. Test! Copy/paste the new link into your browser address bar to make sure it works (remove any spaces in the URL).
