Creating a persistent link:

To share a persistent link from JSTOR, you will need to add Kettering University's proxy to ensure all users both on and off campus can access it. 

To do so, first, open the resource you wish to use. Look for the stable URL, which can be found under the article title, and which in this case is: 

http://www.jstor.org/stable/26638352

Next, add Kettering University's proxy BEFORE the URL as shown below:

https://kettering.idm.oclc.org/login?url= added to 

http://www.jstor.org/stable/26638352 equals your new persistent link:

https://kettering.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://www.jstor.org/stable/26638352
