SaveURL

A SaveURL symbol at the top of the page indicates that the URL of the page persists even when the session of WBIS Online is over. Persistent URLs can be book marked for future reference, or copied into an e-mail message or into any other application (eg Word).

One common use for SaveURL is to save search results. This could be specific biographical or bibliographic entries or a results list after a biographical or bibliographic search. Using SaveURL on a list of marked documents ensures that this list is permanently saved and that the search results are available to the user again at a later stage. It is not possible to use SaveURL for digitized biographical articles.

To create a SaveURL click on the available link in the functionalities bar on the page you want to save. A new window will open offering the following options:

You can copy the URL by holding the right mouse button and selecting "copy link". Through the temporary storage of your computer you can now paste this link into any other application (eg Word, a webpage etc).
You can save the URL of this page as a bookmark. Clicking on the link "Bookmark SaveURL" opens the functionality Bookmarks / Favourites of your browser and you can store the link in the desired place.

Please note:

If you wish to use SaveURL to create a bookmark with a Mozilla Firefox browser, please click the first URL in the window displayed with the right mouse and choose the function “Bookmark This Page” in the menu. If you use the function “Bookmark This Page” to save the URL, it will open a new side window when recalled via the list of bookmarks.
