Thesis: #
Handle links are mostly used for theses in institutional repositories and will link directly to where the final version of a thesis is stored. Example handle link: http://hdl.handle.net/10948/17724. Click the External link option and copy and paste this type of link for your thesis in the text box provided for external links.
Published works like articles, books, etc. #
Follow the same process as for thesis. Search for your article online on the publisher’s website and copy the DOI link on the site into the external link text box. Example DOI link: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10648-016-9369-z. It is best to use DOI links and not the link in the browser on the publisher’s websites as these types of links tend to move or change if the site is updated. If in doubt and your document does not contravene copyright conditions, you may prefer to upload a pdf copy.
