A bookmarklet is now available for use with the MEDICOR proxy server. Once the bookmarklet is installed following the instructions below, it will allow you to go through our proxy server to access a resource directly from its resource location (if your library subscribes to that resource). This eliminates the need for you to login to MEDICOR to start the proxy server.

You can add one or all of the MEDICOR Proxy Bookmarklets (depending upon your privileges) to your Favorites, Bookmarks, or Toolbar. You can then start using the proxy service to access restricted resources without having to go back to the MEDICOR website. When you are denied access to an Empire Health Services or Sacred Heart Medical Center licensed resource when off-campus, simply click the bookmark, login with your MEDICOR ID and password, and you will be able to access the restricted resource (depending upon your privileges, licensing terms and conditions).

Installation instructions for the bookmarklets are located below.

MEDICOR Proxy Bookmarklet (Sacred Heart)

Installation instructions for different browsers:

• Usage notes:

  • Once the proxy bookmarklet is in your browser's toolbar, you should be able to gain access to restricted resources at the click of a button. Once you are on a page that is restricted, click on the proxy bookmarklet in your browser's toolbar, and you will be redirected through the proxy server for the page you are currently at. In some cases you may need to use the browser's "Back" button to return to the resource URL, not the vendor's login/error page.
  • Licensed content is provided by a number of vendors and some content may not be purchased directly from the source you are using. In this case you will need to start from the journal A-Z list to see if we have access to this resource.
