EBSCOhost has launched a new user interface for all EBSCOhost databases. UOW will be migrated to the new user interface in late June or early July 2025. As EBSCO will no longer provide access to 'My Custom' folder and some sub-folders, such as 'Search Alerts' folder and 'Persistent Links to Searches' folder, in your MyEBSCO Account on the new user interface, please review your saved items as soon as possible by following these steps.
After 31 May 2025, you won’t be able to access any MyEBSCO Accounts created before 1 Feb 2025.
To ensure access to your existing saved searches and selected items, please firstly follow the 'Merge Account' steps to merge your previously created MyEBSCO Accounts into the MyEBSCO Account crated via SSO as soon as you can.
After your account is merged successfully by EBSCO, you can edit, and update saved searches and items in your MyEBSCO Account while accessing any EBSCO resources from the Library SEARCH or the A-Z Database list.
How do I review and move items saved in 'My Custom' section?
On the EBSCOhost interface, select the “Folder” from top right menu bard to open and view your MyEBSCO Account.
There are three main sections/folders: 'My Folder', 'My Custom' and 'Shared By', and they are displayed on the left-hand side of the screen.
To move a saved item from 'My Custom' to 'My Folder':
- Click into any sub-folder under 'My Custom' section,
- Select the items you want to keep,
- Open the 'Move To' drop down and select 'My Folder'.
UOW staff, Dean's Scholar, Honours and postgraduate students can book a research consultation with a librarian.
