This is a best practice for a number of reasons:</p> <ul> <li>Ensures <a href="https://www.purchase.edu/library/about/accessibility/" data-cke-saved-href="https://www.purchase.edu/library/about/accessibility/">accessibility</a>: Many databases offer text-to-speech options and provide stable, searchable, and accessible PDFs. Databases also upgrade & improve content regularly. </li> <li>Builds research skills by familiarizing students with various database interfaces. </li> <li>Ensures compliance with <a href="https://purchase.libguides.com/copyright/policy" data-cke-saved-href="https://purchase.libguides.com/copyright/policy">copyright</a>. </li> <li>Reduces amount of time faculty spend scanning course materials. </li> <li>Increases database usage/traffic, which helps the Library justify database renewal costs. </li> <li>Encourages students to take advantage of value-added features such as citation generators, exporting to citation managers, and alternative file formats (PDF, HTML, ePub, etc). </li> </ul> <p> To make resources from the Library’s subscription databases and online journals available to students who may be remotely accessing Brightspace (or other platforms) from <a href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/36686" data-cke-saved-href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/36686">off-campus</a>, you must include the <strong>EZProxy prefix code</strong> in the item’s URL.</p> <p> The <strong>EZProxy prefix code</strong> is: <strong>http://ezproxy.purchase.edu/login?url=</strong></p> <p> This prefix code must be placed <strong><em>before</em></strong> the rest of the URL in order to make the article available from off-campus. To do this:</p> <ol> <li><a href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/36687" data-cke-saved-href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/36687">Locate the article</a> in the Library’s online databases/journals </li> <li>Look for the document’s <strong><a href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/124126" data-cke-saved-href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/124126">persistent URL</a></strong> (also called a permalink, stable URL, or document URL) within item record. <strong>Never</strong> use the URL at the top of the browser bar! </li> <li>Copy and paste the EZProxy code into the URL field when <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rH6c4B7ZjQ&t=2194s" data-cke-saved-href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rH6c4B7ZjQ&t=2194s">adding a new link in Brightspace</a></li> <li>Copy and paste the article’s persistent URL <strong>after</strong> the EZProxy code </li> </ol> <p> <strong>Example:</strong> </p> <p> When using <strong>JSTOR</strong>, click on <strong>“copy the stable URL”</strong> in the article record. Paste the EZProxy prefix in front of the JSTOR stable URL. It should look like this: <a href="http://ezproxy.purchase.edu/login?url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/23361974" data-cke-saved-href="http://ezproxy.purchase.edu/login?url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/23361974"><strong>http://ezproxy.purchase.edu/login?url=</strong>https://www.jstor.org/stable/23361974</a></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Please note:</strong> </p> <ul> <li>Unlike other databases, permalinks from the <a href="https://suny-pur.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?vid=01SUNY_PUR:01SUNY_PUR&lang=en" data-cke-saved-href="https://suny-pur.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?vid=01SUNY_PUR:01SUNY_PUR&lang=en">Library Discovery Search</a> do <strong>not <em></em></strong>require the EZProxy prefix. These permalinks will work from off-campus. </li> <li>Some databases already embed “Purchase” or “ezproxy” into their permalinks or stable URLs; If you see “ezproxy” or “purchase” in a URL, you can simply copy-and-paste the entire link. No need to add the EZproxy prefix twice. </li> <li>When remote (off-campus) users click on an EZProxy URL, they will be prompted for <a href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/36686" data-cke-saved-href="https://purchase.libanswers.com/faq/36686">Database User Authentication and will login</a> using their username (firstname.lastname - <strong>without</strong> @purchase.edu) and Purchase email password. </li> </ul> <p> Direct link to this <a href="/live/blurbs/1171-how-do-i-make-an-article-from-a-library-database" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FAQ on ezproxy</a>.</p> <a class="more" href="#">keep reading <span class="lw_sr_only">FAQ</span>»</a> </div> </div>

If the intention is to interview informants who have a unique perspective on a particular historical event or way of life, and the researcher also intends to let the informant’s stories stand on their own as a “testimonial” or in an archive, with no further analysis, the research is most likely oral history.</p> <p> However, if the surveys or interviews are conducted with the intention of comparing, contrasting, or establishing commonalities between different segments or among members of the same segment, it is safe to say your research will be regular survey/interview procedures, because you will be generalizing the results.</p> <p> Historians explain a particular past; they do not create general explanations about all that has happened in the past, nor do they predict the future.</p> <p> Moreover, oral history narrators are not anonymous individuals, selected as part of a random sample for the purposes of a survey. Interviewees are selected because of their personal relationship to the topic under investigation. An oral history interview provides one person’s unique perspective. A series of oral history interviews offers up a number of particular, individual perspectives on the topic, not information that may be generalized to all research volunteers in the event or time under investigation.</p> <p> Oral history interviews are not analyzed in the same way that qualitative data is generally analyzed. No content analysis, discourse analysis, coding for themes or other qualitative analysis methods of data analysis are performed on the interviews. They stand alone as unique perspectives.</p> <p> It is primarily on the grounds that oral history interviews, in general, are not designed to contribute to “generalizable knowledge” that they are not subject to the requirements of 45 CFR part 46 and, therefore, can be excluded from IRB review.</p> <a class="more" href="#">keep reading <span class="lw_sr_only">FAQ</span>»</a> </div> </div>
