Creating Stable Links to Medical Ebooks: AccessMedicine

How to create a stable or durable link to medical ebooks available from the MSU Libraries

Links to Access Products

Always use the IP authenticated links above to access these resources. This will ensure you can create stable links.

All of the Access platforms, which deliver McGraw-Hill licensed resources, forward users to the new edition when it becomes available. This means that their links should not break when a new edition is released. This may not be true 100% of the time and we recommend checking your stable links periodically to ensure their viability.

Whole Ebooks

You can get the stable link to the ebook from the Electronic Medical Books guide or, if your ebook isn't in there, you can:

1. Navigate to the ebook you want to link to in the McGraw-Hill Access platform

2. copy the portion at the end of the URL after cl.msu.edu/

3. copy and paste the numeric portion of the URL to end of this string (pay attention to which Access platform you are on):

  • Access Medicine: https://ezproxy.msu.edu/login?url=https://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/
  • Access Anesthesiology: https://ezproxy.msu.edu/login?url=https://accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com/
  • Access Emergency Medicine: https://ezproxy.msu.edu/login?url=https://accessemergencymedicine.mhmedical.com/
  • Access Physiotherapy: https://ezproxy.msu.edu/login?url=https://accessphysiotherapy.mhmedical.com/
  • Access Surgery: https://ezproxy.msu.edu/login?url=https://accesssurgery.mhmedical.com/

4. the link to the ebook should look like this:

https://ezproxy.msu.edu/login?url=http://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/book.aspx?bookid=2988
