    Where can I find a 360 Link User Guide?

    ProQuest's 360 Link is a full-featured, OpenURL, link resolver that seamlessly links all of your library resources. When your patron finds a citation or reference to a specific article, 360 Link supplies the best available path to the content, anywhere in your collection. Patrons no longer need to work between databases or repeat searches using different search engines and different search methods.
    This 360 Link User Guide outline below contains links to information throughout the Support Center.
    If you have other questions about 360 Link or OpenURL linking that aren't answered by information found here, you can search the rest of the Support Center using the Search function above.
    And you can always contact us for personalized help! Use the Support Portal option menu near the top of this page, or call us on one of our worldwide telephone numbers.
