Bookmarklet Firefox



Plugin firefoxFirefox bookmarklet icon

The library has created a 'bookmarklet' to help patrons access full text articles from off-campus. Download opengl for mac os. It works just like a regular bookmark in your web browser, but when you click it, you will be able to login to the NYU Health Sciences Library and access the full text of an article.

This bookmarklet works in Firefox and other Gecko based browsers such as SeaMonkey. It also contains a fix to make the notepad appear on top in Firefox 2 on Windows. Notes: If you have problems using non-standard latin characters try setting your default character encoding. Firefox's Bookmarks toolbar gives you quick access to often-used bookmarks. This article describes how to use the Bookmarks toolbar and how to hide it. For more information on bookmarks, see the Bookmarks in Firefox article.
