EBSCOhost Databases: Browser Compatibility Issues

EBSCOhost databases seem to be having some issues with the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox. If you attempt to search an EBSCOhost database with one of these browsers you may encounter errors that will prevent you from browsing search results, viewing related images, or linking out to full-text holdings.

EBSCOhost has been made aware of the problem and they are actively working to correct it. In the meantime, Kimbel Library recommends using either Internet Explorer or Opera for browsing and conducting research in EBSCOhost databases.

My EBSCO Folders Help You Keep Track of Research All Semester

Do you have a research project you will be working on all semester? If you are planning on using any of the library's EBSCO databases, you might want to consider signing up for the "My EBSCO" feature. This feature will allow you to login to the database and save articles you find into folders that you can access again later or invite friends or group project members to share. For more detailed instructions, EBSCO provides this video tutorial: http://0-support.ebsco.com.library.coastal.edu/training/flash_videos/MyEBSCOhost/MyEBSCOhost.htm.

EBSCOhost Database updates

Over the summer, EBSCOhost databases upgraded to EBSCOhost 2.0! While your favorite databases may now look a bit different (EBSCO databases include Academic Search Premier, Business Source Premier, MLA International Bibliography, PsycINFO, Sports Discus, and many others), the content of each database remains the same. Improvements based on extensive user testing were made to the search interface screens and other database functions . Learn more about the changes and get help using the new interface on the EBSCO website here: http://www.ebscohost.com/thisTopic.php?marketID=1&topicID=969
