OpenAthens Authentication

Link Generator

OpenAthens has a designated site where users can generate "athenized" links (links that will authenticate Wheaton users).  Visit the site below and enter your URL into the box to get an "athenized" link that can be shared or posted in Canvas.

It should be noted that persistent links from Library Search and EBSCOhost databases do not need to be "athentized", these links have the OpenAthens authentication built into them.  For more information on how to find a persistent link visit this site.
