How to Locate Permalinks

About Factiva

Factiva doesn't directly support permalinks, but you can manually construct a link to an article. Open the full display of the article you want to link, and scroll to the end of the article to find the document (or accession) number, which will be a long string of letters and numbers like this - BSTNGB0020240816ek8g00108. Enter that number into the form below and click Convert to get the permalink.

Please note: Factiva only allows up to 7 concurrent users. This may create access barriers if an entire class is assigned the same Factiva article.
