Not quite sure what the best way to add more universities would be. It doesn't seem like there's a documented list of the IDs used.

If anyone wants to use this for other universities, please add it to options.html. This essentially needs the ID used in the links, which you can get through

1. Logging in and going to Profil institutional.
2. Expand one of the resources.
3. Copy the link from the Accesează button, which should look something like https://z.e-nformation.ro/UnivdeVestTM?action=source&sourceID=ScienceDirect_AnelisPlus, where UnivdeVestTM is the ID we're looking for.

Can we use the e-nformation logo?

There is e.g. WileyBooks_AnelisPlus and WileyJournals_AnelisPlus that both map to onlinelibrary.wiley.com. Not quite sure what the difference between these two is, but the extension should allow picking the desired one.

At the moment, not sure how the site generates its urls. From a bit of playing around, it seems to do something like this:

1. A URL is given on the main page, of the form https://z.e-nformation.ro/<UNIVERSITY_ID>?action=source&sourceID=<SOURCE_ID>, where

   • UNIVERSITY_ID is some short form name of the university, e.g UnivdeVestTM.
   • SOURCE_ID is some short form name for the publisher, e.g. ScienceDirectEbooks_AnelisPlus

2. Clicking on that URL redirects to a page that looks like https://0610db95m-y-https-www-sciencedirect-com.z.e-nformation.ro/

   • The initial hash is generated by some means.
   • The rest of the URL is from the website name itself and depends on the original SOURCE_ID.

3. On this page, we can translate by appending the pathname like this

   • https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1878535217300990
   • to https://0610db95s-y-https-www-sciencedirect-com.z.e-nformation.ro/science/article/pii/S1878535217300990.

Right now this is done in a two-step fashion by storing the original URL and then clicking on the button again when the redirect in step 2 is over. Would be nice to figure out a way to do this all at once.

If the user is not signed in to the e-nformation.ro website, then the first click to the extension will redirect directly to the https://e-nformation.ro website itself. Going back and clicking again will redirect to the sign-in page.

Would be nice to avoid this somehow?
