Each database in Vera has an "info" link for linking to the full description on our A-Z lists.

Here's how to add an info link to a web page (or a LibGuide):

1. Go to this page: https://wikis.mit.edu/confluence/display/LIBVERAMETALIB/Info+URLs+for+Vera+databases 

2. Search on the page for the name of your database, such as "compendex."

3. Highlight & copy everything after the database name (including the hyphen), for example:
- <a target="_blank" href="http://libraries.mit.edu/info/compendex"><font color="#ff9600" size="-2"><u>info</u></font></a>

4. On the web page or LibGuide (in HTML code view), paste that after the name of your database. It will create a small, orange link that goes to the correct "info" URL.
