Linking to ScienceDirect Articles

  1. Copy the URL from the browser bar or the DOI on the page

Some vendors have stable URLs in the browser bar. You will know when to use them from the browser bar if the URL is short with possibly only an identification ID number or DOI for the resource. If the URL is longer, look for the permalink option on the page of the article.
