To add resources to your new ORLO list, you will need to install the bookmarking to your browser; please download the PDF guide below for detailed instructions. This bookmarking tool will allow you to add print and electronic resources from SOLO, as well as other electronic resources, to your ORLO lists.
Please note that not all browsers can support the Bookmark plug-in due to their advanced security settings and some content doesn't respond well to the plugin, though most academic resources do. Instead of the plug in you can also install a browser extension for Google Chrome, Firefox and Edge. You may need to pause or remove browser AdBlockers in order to install the extension. The only way to bookmark in Edge is with this extension. Details of how to install the extensions are available here.
Please do not use URL shorteners like bit.ly or TinyURL for links in reading lists, as this can lead to security problems. Instead, the link should be the actual web address you want to use.
Tips:
N.B. It is important when bookmarking items off campus that you install and turn on the University VPN. Without the VPN the links in the list will break. Information on how to access the VPN is available from IT Services.
