Database Alerts!

Alerts

Beginning Friday, July 26, 2024, most EBSCO products, including e-books and research databases, will experience a pause in the availability of new or updated content. All products and services, including EBSCOhost, will be accessible and available for use, but it may take up to 10 days to resume full content currency.

EBSCO eBooks have a known printing issue within the Chrome browser. The vendor is aware of the issue and is working on a fix.

Access to the ERIC database is active through EBSCO, but full-text for some documents may not be available. “PDF Release Pending” means that the document cannot be released electronically at this time due to concerns about personally identifiable information in some older, non-peer reviewed documents. No other EBSCO databases are affected.

Please email librarycollections@tamusa.edu to report issues accessing a database not listed in the alerts.
