3/28 - EBSCO databases are now accessible

Thank you for your patience. EBSCO restored access to the WSU Library’s EBSCOhost databases late last night. EBSCO has confirmed that the servers are up and running properly as of approximately 10:00EST last night, so all access to EBSCOhost should now be working properly. EBSCO has apologized for any inconvenience and thanked us for our understanding.

If you are still experiencing access issues with an EBSCO database please let us know.

Also please feel free to contact our research help desk if you need advice with your research. Research help information - http://www.winona.edu/library/ref/

WSU and other MN, ND, & SD institutions are not able to access all of our WSU databases which are provided by EBSCOhost.

They hope to have access restored as soon as possible.

EBSCOhost provides access to the following databases (all of which are affected this downage) and others. These databases are currently not available:

• Academic Search Premier
• America: History and Life
• Business Source Premier
• CINAHL Database
• Communication & Mass Media Complete™
• Criminal Justice Abstracts
• Education Full Text (H.W. Wilson)
• ERIC

• PsycARTICLES
• PsycINFO
• Readers’ Guide Retrospective: 1890-1982 (H.W. Wilson)

EBSCO has apologized for the inconvenience and hopes to have access returned to normal quickly.
