Linking to LINCCWeb
(Page updated: June 26, 2008)

LINCCWeb can be customized to allow your patrons to link directly to preselected pages. You can choose to preset your college or campus, to default to a particular search type, or even to predefine popular searches for online pathfinders. Using the instructions below, you can choose to point your patrons to precisely the search options you believe will be most beneficial to them.

The form below allows you to quickly find the most popular customized local links for your library to access LINCCWeb resources. Simply choose your college/campus and the LINCCWeb resource you wish to link to, and the correct URL will display automatically. Optional index and search queries are listed further down this page; you may add that functionality to the basic URLs generated by this form.
