Directions:

• Create a new url by adding the proxy prefix (below) to the url in the address bar for the AccessMedicine resource you want to use.
• so if the url in the address bar is https://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?bookid=2129&sectionid=179924708 the url for Canvas would be: http://ezproxy.messiah.edu/login?url=https://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?bookid=2129&sectionid=179924708

Proxy prefix: http://ezproxy.messiah.edu/login?url=
