If you just take a permanent or stable link out of a database and add it to Blackboard or any other web site where you can add links, a user off campus clicking that link wouldn’t get in because the URL didn’t send them through our proxy server first. When I send permanent links to professors and students, I put this at the start of the URL to ensure that the link will work off campus: http://remote.baruch.cuny.edu/login?url=
