Alumni and Friends EBSCO FAQ
Members of the OSU Alumni Association and the Friends of the Libraries have access to two EBSCO databases, Academic Search Alumni Edition and Business Source Premier Alumni Edition. Both databases include many full text journal articles. Access is provided via the Services for Alumni and Friends Web page. Ohio citizens have access to these two EBSCO databases, plus many others, via their local public library.
From the Services for Alumni and Friends Web page click the Alumni Online Library link on the left and then Alphabetic List of databases. When you select either EBSCO database you will get the following EBSCO sign-in screen, follow the on-screen instructions. If you have problems contact EBSCO using the information provided in the sign-in screen.
Library staff connecting to EBSCO databases from a campus computer via the Alumni Online Library will never see the EBSCO Alumni sign-in screen as our access is IP-based. Library staff will see an EBSCO screen listing the databases available to Alumni and Friends.
