Wilson Databases Moving to EBSCOhost

The database vendors H.W. Wilson and EBSCO have merged; on February 1st all Wilson databases will be integrated into the EBSCOhost platform. All links will redirect but some of the product names have changed, please see the list of databases below.

As of February your “My WilsonWeb” folders will no longer be accessible. We encourage you to save the content in your “My WilsonWeb” as you deem appropriate. Should you wish to establish a new “My EBSCOhost” folder, this would work very similarly to “My WilsonWeb.” For information on “My EBSCOhost”, please visit: http://support.ebscohost.com/knowledge_base/detail.php?topic=996&id=1275&page=1.

Please contact Jane Strudwick, Electronic Resources Librarian, with any questions or concerns. Continue reading
