If you are going to add a link to Moodle for your students to use or are going to send them a list of links follow the directions below to make them work off-campus.
Your link will need to combine two parts: the proxy and the persistent link. Do not just copy and pasting from your URL bar.
The LCU proxy is: https://lcu.idm.oclc.org/login?url=
Get the persistent link from the item you want to link to and add it to the end of the proxy. This will create a link that will work off-campus in Moodle or e-mail. How to find persistent links can be found below.
Contact us if you need any help and we can format links for you.
Example:
Link you would use in Moodle (proxy + persistent link)
