How do I share a link to a book or article from an EBSCO database?

Sharing links to EBSCO resources

To share a link to an article or ebook from an EBSCO database, search for and select the item you would like to share. A permalink is available from the results list or from the item's record. This link will work on and off campus. Off campus you will be prompted to login with your Los Rios login (wID and password) to view the item.
