Databases news and issues

Databases of the week

EBSCOhost folders
If you had an account in the old EBSCOhost environment and had created subfolders in it, you need to transfer them to the new interface yourself:
• Go to the EBSCO databases and log in to MyEBSCO at the top right
• Click on: "Access your Classic Folder" at the bottom left
• Then click on: "Folder". This is the old EBSCOhost environment.
• Select the contents of the subfolders and move this to the root folder. This will be automatically migrated to the new interface.

Amberscript
Due to a recent update to the Amberscript payment module, billing details are being asked for when checking out. This should not happen, Amberscript is working on a solution. But users can simply enter the address of THUAS. Then they can proceed without paying.
