Personal EBSCO accounts

If you have created a personal account and have saved materials in folders, please be aware that only "My folder" will be transferred.听听
If you have material saved in a custom or shared folder that you need to access in the near future, we recommend that you copy it to "My folder" before February 4.

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Open the custom folder you want to move saved material from. Check the box to select certain items or choose "Select all".
  3. Click on "Move to" and select "My folder" as the destination folder.

The migration on the Ebsco platforms are done in different stages and everything is no ready at the time we need to migrate. Custom folders will be unavailble between february and april, when they will be possible to download again.

Saved searches will be migrated.

Search- and journal alerts will need to be recreated on the new interface.
