Populate Blackboard courses with a variety of Licensed Library Databases.

In addition, GRCC licenses several academic EBSCOhost databases. HINT!  For most linking needs, the easiest way to link ONE ARTICLE is from a OneSearch results screen.

Right-click to copy the pop-up Permalink URL and then paste it into your Blackboard and add your preferred citation.
