[OPLINLIST] Database of the Month: Magazine and Journal Articles via EBSCOhost

[Mandy Knapp]

Hello all,

I hope this day is treating you well. Each month I'll be bringing a
resource available from the Ohio Web Library <http://ohioweblibrary.org/> to
your attention. This November, let's take a look at the Newspapers and
Magazine available through EBSCOhost <http://ohioweblibrary.org/ebsco>,
including MasterFILE and Academic Search Premier.

EBSCOhost delivers articles from more than 6,000 magazines and newspapers,
most in full text, ranging from children's magazines to professional
research journals. Different interfaces designed for specific age groups
and curricular areas make EBSCOhost easy to use for all researchers.
Magazine and journal articles are contained in two databases: MasterFILE,
which is primarily popular magazines, and Academic Search Premier, which is
primarily academic or scholarly journals.
