How do I create direct URL links to specific Engineering Village databases?

You may create direct URL link(s) to the Engineering Village Quick and Expert search pages that will default to the database or combination of databases that you prefer to use.

How

Click the appropriate link below to access the URL for an individual database that you would like to set as the default for your Quick or Expert searches.

Using the database values in the chart below, you may create customized URL links to the Engineering Village Quick and Expert search pages that will default to your preferred combination of databases.

You can create these customized URL links by totaling the values for each corresponding database in your preferred combination.

For example, set your default for the Quick search for Compendex (database = 1) and Inspec (database = 2) by adding (1 + 2) = 3 to create the following URL:

www.engineeringvillage.com/app/search/quick/?database=3

For example, set your default for an Expert search for PaperChem (database = 64) and Knovel (database = 4194304) by adding (64 + 419304) = 4194368 to create the following URL:

https://www.engineeringvillage.com/search/expert.url?database=4194368
