Article courtesy of Indiana State Library
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, EBSCO has graciously decided to expand database content available via INSPIRE
until the end of June. This includes upgrades from Academic Search
Premier to Academic Search Ultimate, with over 9,200 active full-text
journals and magazine articles; from Business Source Complete to
Business Source Ultimate, with over 3,200 active full-text journals and
magazine articles; and from Masterfile Premier to Masterfile Complete.
These upgrades are now live and may be accessed on INSPIRE. If you have
questions or need assistance with any of the resources on INSPIRE,
please contact us. Read EBSCO’s statement below:
“As
the library community adjusts to the impact of the COVID-19 virus,
EBSCO, as a key content provider and partner for INSPIRE, is looking to
ensure end users have access to an expanded breadth of online content.
Many college, university and K-12 students will be completing the
current academic term in an entirely online format. To assist with this
initiative, EBSCO has made the following offering available to all
members of INSPIRE: Academic Search Ultimate, Business Source Ultimate
and Masterfile Complete. This collection will bring thousands of
additional full-text journal and magazine titles into each library’s
collection.
Please let us know if you would like direct URLS for your libraries to access the new content.”
Those with questions may contact Deborah LaPierre, senior academic account executive with EBSCO. EBSCO tech support can be reached at 800-758-5995.
EBSCO
has also made available all levels of Rosetta Stone until June 30.
Libraries interested in access to the expanded edition of Rosetta Stone
should contact Leah Griffin, account executive at EBSCO. Library patrons should contact their local public library to inquire about availability.
The upgraded databases can found under the Databases A-Z link on the INSPIRE homepage.
