The library subscribes to several databases on the EBSCOhost platform, including CINAHL, Psycinfo, and the Cochrane databases.
If you use these databases, you will see changes to their visual format coming August 5th, as EBSCO updates their user interface.
For the most part, this new user interface will allow for all of the same functions that you’ve used previously in EBSCO products; however, any search alerts will need to be re-created once this change goes live.
More information about using the new EBSCO can be found at the following links:
- Introduction to the New EBSCOhost (Tutorial)
- The New EBSCOhost – Quick Start Guide (links to more in-depth documentation on various features such as searching, using personal accounts and dashboards, search alerts etc.)
- The New EBSCOhost - Frequently Asked Questions (includes EBSCO’s rationale regarding the changes)
If you need help navigating these new changes, let us know: we will do our best to answer any questions you may have, and can provide consultations over Teams to help orient you to the new EBSCO environment.
