O'Reilly uses a deep link protocol (NOT EzProxy) in which a specific URL prefix must be used to build permanent links to resources in the Safari Database.
- Perform a search in O'Reilly and locate your desired eBook.
- Click on the title of your eBook to open the table of contents or desired book chapter.
- Locate the URL in your browser's address bar.
- Do not copy the entire URL. Instead, copy all characters past the https://www.learning.oreilly.com, which will look something like this for eBooks: /library/view/cybersecurity-attack/9781788475297/ or like this for videos: /videos/comptia-security-sy0-201/9780789740007/9780789740007-SY0201_i20
- Add the partial URL you copied above to the end of the prefix provided in the text box below:
- Use the URL you built from the address bar URL and the provided prefix in the LMS (ask an eLearning team member for help elibrarian@snhu.edu if needed)
The permanent URL that is ready to placed in the LMS will look like this: : https://go.oreilly.com/SNHU/library/view/cybersecurity-attack/9781788475297/
Please note that some videos do not have captions and the vendor does not turn around captioning requests quickly.
