EBSCO Acquires Database from Elsevier & Partners with EOS International

+ Deal is Complete: EBSCO Acquires World of Textiles Database from Elsevier

EBSCO Publishing has completed the acquisition of World Textiles from Elsevier, a world-leading publisher of scientific, technical and medical information products and services. The database contains data from 1970 to the present, providing researchers with international coverage of scientific, trade, technical and economic publications. Selection for content in World Textiles utilizes a unique classification scheme designed to adapt coverage to current research trends.

EOS International is proud to announce its newly established partnership with EBSCO Publishing provider of EBSCOhost Integrated Search (EHIS). Contracts were signed during the first week of November to establish the new business partnership that allows EOS International to offer EBSCOhost Integrated Search as the Federated Search component of the EOS.Web solution.

The EOS.Web / EBSCOhost Integrated Search partnership provides EOS International with a brand new federated searching technology that is anticipated to further perfect and streamline the database search process. With EHIS, patrons can simultaneously search their Web OPAC and EBSCOhost® databases, as well as other electronic resources, including those from other database aggregators.
