Binghamton University Libraries Proxy Button

Download extension

Loads Binghamton University Libraries' proxy service on Google Scholar and other websites.This chrome extension is intended for Binghamton University students and faculty and requires a BU login. This extension is not affiliated with Binghamton University.

It appends the BU library's proxy to the current page's URL. If you land on a journal article from outside the library system and you are off campus, it will reload the page as if you arrived there from the library website (e.g. will have full text links if available).

If you use it on google scholar, then it will reload Google Scholar via the library proxy so that search results will use the proxy link.

If the library does not have the site in its proxy database, it will send you to a 404 error page or the database listing. This doesn't mean that the library doesn't have access to it, just that they don't have access through the page you are on. If this occurs check the library catalog for access.
