ClinicalKey links that contain a '#' in the URL are not stable. These links will work for those who are connected to an Advocate Aurora network (on site or connected to the VPN), but if you are not on the Advocate Health - Midwest network, clicking these links will sometimes take you to ClinicalKey's homepage and not to the article or book chapter you are trying to access.
Example of a NON-STABLE link: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/#!/content/journal/1-s2.0-S1081120611009380
In ClinicalKey, persistent links are called "durable URLs." There are different ways to make durable URLs in ClinicalKey depending on the type of resource you want to share. This page provides instructions on making links for articles, books, book chapters, and journals.
Create a durable URL using a CK article's DOI and the LibKey.io prefix. Instructions found here.
Method 1: Look up the book, book chapter, or journal in the applicable spreadsheet found under the under the "Durable URLs" section of this site: Implementation – ClinicalKey (elsevierresources.com)
Note: You will need to add the LibLynx proxy prefix before the durable URLs to ensure that the links are accessible from off the Advocate Health - Midwest network or VPN. LibLynx proxy prefix: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=
Method 2: Create a link by copying sections of the ClinicalKey URL and appending it to the applicable link prefix found below.
Books and book chapters: Look up the book or book chapter that you want to share, copy the alpha-numeric code at the end of the URL and append it to the appropriate URL.
Example book link: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/dura/browse/bookChapter/3-s2.0-C2017000647X
Example book chapter link: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/playContent/3-s2.0-B9780323640152000408
Journals
For journals, copy the 8-digit number in the URL that appears after "journal/" in the URL and append it to:
Example journal link: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/dura/browse/journalIssue/02715317
Patient Education Monographs
Copy the alpha-numeric code at the end of the patient education monograph URL and append it to this URL: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/playcontent/
Example patient education monograph link: https://liblynxgateway.com/aah?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/playcontent/5-s2.0-pe_5677dea8-1710-4091-a287-e5e302885040
