Perma.cc — Library Innovation Lab

Websites change. Perma Links don’t. Perma.cc helps scholars, journals, courts, and others create permanent records of the web sources they cite. Perma.cc is built and supported by libraries.

Once you've created a Perma account, you can log into this browser extension via your API key, which can be found in the tools section of your dashboard.

Enter your key into the extension and start creating Perma Links right as you are browsing.

When you are on a page that you’d like to archive, simply open the extension, select the folder you’d like the link to be affiliated with, and click “archive this page.”

Progress will be shown at the bottom of the tray, along with a list of any other captures that have been made of that URL on your account.

When you’re done working on your project and would like to see your Perma Links, they will display as normal on your dashboard.
