For faculty creating links to library resources inside Laulima course sites for Leeward CC courses, we have a special proxy prefix that will allow students to access those resources without having to log in again after they have logged in to Laulima. This is possible because a student needs to be registered in a class in order to have access to the Laulima course site, so it's not necessary to have them log in again to prove that they are a current student.
Instead of the regular proxy prefix, use this prefix instead: https://laulima.hawaii.edu/libproxy/lee/?
If the stable link came from a database that automatically adds our regular prefix (https://lccproxy.lib.hawaii.edu/login?url=), you will have to remove it and replace it with prefix above. Note that when replacing the regular prefix, you have to remove everything up to and including the equals (=) sign.
Examples:
The Record URL for a Films on Demand video that's shown when you click on "Embed/Link" is given as:
https://lccproxy.lib.hawaii.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=100432&xtid=3064
To use it in Laulima, remove the regular prefix and replace it with the Laulima prefix:
https://laulima.hawaii.edu/libproxy/lee/?https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=100432&xtid=3064
Links to articles in JSTOR are given without the proxy prefix. Add the Laulima proxy prefix in front of it.
https://laulima.hawaii.edu/libproxy/lee/?https://www.jstor.org/stable/1146851
Laulima links to popular library research databases (contact us for others):
Note – When adding a link to a Laulima Lessons page, you can omit the hostname and use the prefix /libproxy/lee/?
Use of this special prefix is optional The regular one will still work in Laulima. This just makes it a little easier for your students.
