LibKey & BrowZine

The BrowZine search box allows you to embed a responsive search box directly into a webpage or LibGuide so users can search directly from your site. These instructions are for adding the search box into your LibGuide. See the subpage "BrowZine on your library's website" for instructions on how to add it to your webpage.

First, Locate your Third Iron ID

1. Go to www.browzine.com, then click. "Choose My Library" button. Select your library from the list. The resulting page is your library's unique BrowZine URL with your Third Iron ID amended at the end: http://browzine.com/libraries/###
2. If going to www.browzine.com loads a BrowZine page other than your own library's, simply click the gear wheel icon in the upper right corner. Then, click "Change Library", under the library's name at the top of the screen. This will take you to the library selection list.

Then, add the search box code

1. Using "Rich Text / HTML", select 
2. Paste the following HTML Code:

<img alt="" src="//s3.amazonaws.com/libapps/accounts/78343/images/BrowZinelogo.png" style="width: 100px; height: 100px; float: left; margin-right:20px;" />
<form method="get" action="https://api.thirdiron.com/v2/libraries/###/external-search" target="_blank">
  <fieldset>
    <legend>Search e-journals</legend>
    <label for="query">Title, ISSN or Subject keywords</label>
    <input type="text" name="query" id="query">
    <input type="submit" value="submit">
  </fieldset>
</form>

3. Replace the ### with your library's Third Iron ID

Last, tweak to fit!
