Good news, SWAN libraries! EDS is ready for opt-in. If you would like to make EBSCO Discovery Service (EDS) and OpenAthens available to your patrons, please submit a ticket to the help desk with the title “EDS Opt-in” and we will schedule time to activate your profile. You can open a help desk ticket by email, sending the message to help@swanlibraries.net.
Additionally, EBSCO will be presenting two hour-long webinars to educate library staff on using EDS and OpenAthens. The first webinar will be held on December 12th from 2:00pm–3:00pm and will cover searching in EDS, a review of EBSCOadmin, and available customizations. The second webinar will be held on January 17th from 2:00pm–3:00pm and will cover key features and functionality of OpenAthens as well as advanced EBSCOadmin features. Both webinars will be recorded and viewable after the trainings have completed. The second webinar will address specific questions/feedback from the first so it is highly recommended that staff make time to view both.
Please follow this L2 link to register yourself or others for the first of the two webinars.
