EBSCOhost 2.0

EBSCOhost has released a new version of its popular database system.  EBSCOhost 2.0 introduces a new look to databases such as Academic Search Complete,  America: History & Life, Communication & Mass Media Complete, ERIC, MEDLINE, MLA International Bibliography, PsycINFO, and SocINDEX. At first, the changes will be cosmetic -- a simplified search screen, a different way of displaying search results, and easy access to the popular "How to Cite" feature. Later in 2008, EBSCOhost will use Google search technology to rank search results by relevance.

If you have questions or concerns about EBSCOhost 2.0, please share them with us by commenting on this blog or by sending an e-mail message to Ask a Librarian. We will share your comments with EBSCOhost and work with them to resolve any problems that may arise from this significant update.
