For other databases not falling under the categories above, you should be able to take the URL from the address bar and attach the prefix to place in Moodle.  The prefix allows only Chatham affiliates to access the material.  If the prefix is not attached to the the URL, students will not be able to access the material. 

 Prefix: https://go.openathens.net/redirector/chatham.edu?url=
