Single Search (EBSCO Discovery Service)

A guide to using Camosun Library's Single Search discovery system.

Linking in the new Single Search

In the updated Single Search interface (August 2024) there are no more permalinks!!

To share a stable link to a resource, you can copy the URL from the top address bar, as highlighted in the screenshot below.

For example: 

https://research.ebsco.com/c/vsabqu/search/details/e2efdcc5mf?limiters=FT1%3AY&q=bees

Instructors

Please remember to test links to library resource on and off campus before adding them to D2L. Camosun Librarians are happy to help if you have questions!

Permalinks in other EBSCOhost databases

Linking to an article from any other EBSCOhost database such as Academic Search Complete?

Look for the permalink tool icon under Tools on the right side of the article.

Do NOT use the session-based URL from the top address bar!

For example:

https://libsecure.camosun.bc.ca:2443/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=95567876&site=ehost-live
