How can I provide a link to an article?

Answer

Any time you want to save or share a link to an article you need to make sure that it is persistent and will work when you try to use it later.

Database links in the top of the address bar are not permanent and will not work if you try to use them again.

You can create persistent links by finding the persistent/permanent link or share option provided by the database on the article's information page.

Different databases call persistent links different names, such as "stable URLs,” “durable links,” “bookmarks,” or even identify persistent links with an icon.

NB Currently, there is no permalink that links directly to a specific article in Flipster. However, you can link directly to the most current issue by using the persistent URL found under the Share option.
