The company is a subsidiary of EBSCO Industries.

[edit] Databases

EBSCO Publishing’s core business is providing online databases via its proprietary software, EBSCOhost, to libraries.^[2]

The company introduced a new 2.0 interface in 2008, which, according to EBSCO, "combines the need for a simplified search experience with in-depth functions."^[3] A related product is EBSCO A-to-Z, which consolidates information into a central database.

The company also provides databases for reference in both the health and business sectors. Dynamed is a clinical reference tool which is available as a subscription-based resource providing evidence-based clinical information to physicians.^[4]^[5]
