Quickly reload pages through your library's EZProxy.
Many universities use EZProxy to allow its students access to various online databases. This extension adds a button to Chrome which allows for a quick way to reload the current page through your EZProxy system.
All it does is pass the URL to your library's EZProxy login URL. For example:
http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/
would change to:
http://www.library.drexel.edu/cgi-bin/r.cgi?url=http://ieeexplore.ieee.org
Also, the code to this extension is available on GitHub: https://github.com/tom5760/chrome-ezproxy
This extension also uses the library proxy database at: https://libproxy-db.org/
Updates in the latest version:
* Update to Manifest v3
* Simultaneously publish Chrome & Firefox extension
Please let me know if you run into any problems by creating an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/tom5760/chrome-ezproxy

- Awesome! Gets around having to go to the college library to get access to scholarly journal articles and other resources. Don't even need to sign in. If this catches on it's sure to draw the ire of Elsevier and all those folks who make huge profits by standing in the way of science. So don't talk about it.
