The primary search tool used to search physical and electronic library resources has a new look and feel. It's designed to improve accessibility and the user experience. All EBSCO sites have been updated to this interface.
The dashboard is your library account. When signed in with your campus login, you will be able to see Projects, Saved items, Searches, Requests & Loans, and Alerts.
Filters now display under the search box instead of the left-hand side of the screen. Clicking on the All filters button opens a menu with all of the options to limit your search.
This mode allows you to search using everyday language. By toggling this setting to on, EBSCO uses an AI tool to asses the intent and context of your query. In the example below you can see how using natural language searching retrieves more results, using search terms that were not words entered in the search box.

Anywhere you see a bookmark icon, you can click it to save an article to your Dashboard.
Select the quotation marks icon to copy a citation, choosing the style from the drop down menu. When viewing the open record, click the quotation marks icon to copy or export the citation to a tool of your choice.
To create an alert notifying you when a new issue of a journal becomes available, follow these instructions. Note: Alerts created on the old site will not be migrated to this new interface. Recreate them in the new site to continue receiving timely notifications.
Please contact the library if you need assistance.
