/A New Future for H.W. Wilson/

Dear Customers:

We have exciting news to share. As you know, it has always been our goal
to provide the best products and services to our customers, and we are
dedicated to supporting the library community as a whole. We will
continue to uphold these objectives, and will do so together with EBSCO
as we move forward.

Effective May 31, 2011, Wilson has merged with EBSCO Publishing. We have
maintained a strong partnership with EBSCO through the years, and this
joining marks an exciting new beginning that will be immensely positive
for Wilson customers. With more than 150 years of combined experience
serving libraries and research needs, the strengths of both companies
will come together to provide greater products and services – enabling
us to take the Wilson databases to unprecedented heights, and together
enhance the EBSCO databases as well. As Wilson databases are added to
the EBSCOhost platform, customers will be encouraged to transition to
EBSCOhost, and you will begin to see the results of the combined effort
of Wilson and EBSCO.

This partnership will enable huge strides for our companies in serving
our customers, and helping you to support your end users. We thank you
for your business and loyalty through the years. We look forward to
serving your needs for years to come.
