In order to access Transparent Language Online for library customers, ensure that you construct your starting point URLs with your unique link as followed:

If your link was: https://ezproxy.mylib.org/login?url=https://library.transparent.com/[your library’s nickname]/game/ng/#/login

Go to the URL Decoder/Encoder (meyerweb.com) and paste your link into the text field. Click encode and then copy the resulting text. In this example the text would become:

https%3A%2F%2Flibrary.transparent.com%2Fnickname%2Fgame%2Fng%2F%23%2Flogin

Create a link using that follows this pattern:

https://ezproxy.mylib.org/login?qurl=[your encoded link]

Using the example above it would be https://ezproxy.mylib.org/login?qurl=https%3A%2F%2Flibrary.transparent.com%2Fnickname%2Fgame%2Fng%2F%23%2Flogin

In order to access Transparent Language Online for education, customers can follow the same pattern except they will use the education.transparent.com subdomain. Example:

https://ezproxy.mylib.org/login?qurl=https%3A%2F%2Feducation.transparent.com%2Fnickname%2Fgame%2Fng%2F%23%2Flogin

  • In the link for Transparent Language Online, replace nickname with the actual ID provided by the vendor.
