Faculty Guide to Utilizing Library Databases: ACS

Linking to Articles

To link to a specific article:

  1. Locate the article in the ACS database.
  2. Look for the DOI of the article (under the citation information). As an example, the DOI for the article  "Spherical Siliceous Mesocellular Foam Particles for High-Speed Size Exclusion Chromatography" is https://doi.org/10.1021/cm063050x
  3. Paste the url into the desired location. To ensure that the link will work from off-campus, insert the following prefix: https://ezproxy.una.edu/login?url= 
    The url from #2 would become https://ezproxy.una.edu/login?url=https://doi.org/10.1021/cm063050x
