Creating Permanent links to Springer E-Books
I have made a blogroll of some of the highly accessed e-books from Springer publications. In case you want to make a permanent link to the electronic book then you would have to find the DOI of that e-book from the blogroll or from the Springer E-Books page. Then add the DOI number at the end of this link http://dx.doi.org.ezproxy.library.yorku.ca/
