New Social Work Abstracts Access

The library's access to Social Work Abstracts has changed over to a new interface through EBSCO. What does this mean for the user?

1) The interface is easier to use and familiar to most users already through Academic Search Premier or the numerous other databases we access through EBSCO.

2) With the EBSCO interface comes links to hundreds of full-text journals directly from citations in the database.

3) Users can set up search alerts for new issues of journals or ongoing searches. This means that you can get automatic announcements (email or rss) when a new issue of a journal is available in the database or when articles are specific topics (or by specific authors) are added to the database. (See EBSCO's support page on setting up search alerts.)
