WashU Library Chrome Extension

Install the extension for Chrome at the Chrome Web Store.

Overview

This is a Chrome extension that automatically rewrites journal URLs to include the WashU library proxies (both Danforth and Becker proxies).

These proxies are:

e.g. nature.com would become: nature.com.beckerproxy.wustl.edu OR nature.com.libproxy.wustl.edu

NOTE: This extension requires either a WUSTL Key or a Becker Proxy account.

Options

  • Auto Redirect (default: true)
  • Should we automatically redirect the page if it's in a database of known journals ([LIB]-journals.js)?
  • Enable Danforth Proxy (default: true)
  • Should we use libproxy.wustl.edu?
  • Enable Becker Proxy (default: true)
  • Should we use beckerproxy.wustl.edu (or beckerproxy2a.wucon.wustl.edu)?
  • Prefer Danforth Proxy (default: false)
  • If a journal is in both proxies (e.g. Nature) and both are enabled, should we prefer Danforth?
