Linking to Sources in CQ Researcher

Follow the directions below to get links to articles from CQ Researcher that will work later.

  1. On the search results page, click on the title of a report to view the full report.
  2. Select the Get link icon on the right side of the page and click copy to clipboard.
  3. Paste the URL into the Off-Campus Link Generator and edit it. Replace the first two dashes with periods, so that
    https://cqpress-sagepub-com
    becomes
    https://cqpress.sagepub.com
  4. After you have replaced the dashes, click Create Link.
  5. You will get a pop-up message that says, "That is a translated proxy URL and needs to be fixed. Click OK and we will fix it for you." Click OK.
  6. Copy the new link that appears in the bottom box. Use this address when citing this source and to return to this page in the future.
  7. Test your link! Paste the address into a different browser app (like Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) to make sure it works. You will be prompted to log in again in the new browser window.

If you plan to post this link in D2L Brightspace, read about linking to library sources in D2L first.
