    360 Core: Adding Campus Research-Westlaw International Databases

    • Product: 360 Core Client Center

    What does my library need to do when we add a Campus Research or Westlaw International database?

    When your library adds a Campus Research or Westlaw International - Turkish Consortium database from provider Thomson West, you need to add some information to the ProQuest system to avoid the prompt for authentication. The following four databases are affected:
    Campus Research: Law - Full-text Titles - powered by Westlaw (U.S.)
    Campus Research: Law - Selected Full-text Titles - powered by Westlaw
    Campus Research: News & Law - Full-text Titles - powered by Westlaw (U.S.)
    Campus Research: News & Law - Selected Full-text Titles - powered by Westlaw (U.S.
    Westlaw International - Turkish Consortium
    The default URLs we have for the Campus Research databases begin with http://campus.westlaw.com, while the default URL we have for Westlaw International - Turkish Consortium is http://international.westlaw.com. Both require your users to log in for access to content unless further customization to the URLs is done.
    Please use the following procedure to change the default database URL to ensure your patrons can access content:
    1. In the Client Center, using the Data Management system, navigate to the Database Details page for each database.
    2. Click the Edit button on the right side of the page to open it up for editing.
    3. In the Custom URL field, enter the custom URL that you use to access each database directly (for example, http://www.westlaw.com/signon/defaul...1.0&vr=2.0&sp=[your library's Westlaw Identifier]), where [your library's Westlaw Identifier] is replaced by the client identifier Westlaw has provided to you (typically a numeric identifier in this syntax: 00xxxxxxx-2000).
    4. Use the Support Portal option at the top of this page to request that we create your title-level links. Select the following:

      Service: 360 Core (Client Center)
      Category: Problem
      Question Summary: Create Title-Level Links for Westlaw Database [name of database]
      Question Detail: [Tell us your your library's Westlaw Identifier and the name of the database.]
