Attention Faculty! Update Your EBSCO Library Links!
Do you link to articles from EBSCO databases in your BlackBoard or Moodle course? If so, you may need to update the URLs. Some EBSCO library databases were recently upgraded to versions that include access to additional magazine and journal content. For example, Academic Search Premier was upgraded to Academic Search Complete. Faculty linking to articles from their BlackBoard or Moodle courses to the affected EBSCO databases will need to update their URLs. Click here for a full list of affected databases and instructions on how to find the updated URLs. If you have questions contact Steve Osler at steve.osler@cpcc.edu or at ext. 6845.
