EBSCOHost is the name of a family of databases now available on the Library's homepage. This collection of 16 databases, acquired for CUNY-wide use, includes academic research products and additional titles that target children, business and health area needs. The listing also includes some databases that originate from other companies but are offered here in an EBSCO enhanced version. All these sources can be accessed through the Library home page at www.lagcc.cuny.edu/library. They are available anywhere on campus and off campus via the remote connection icon "Are You Away From Campus?"

EBSCOHost products are principally known for providing online indexing, abstracting and full-text delivery of magazine and journal sources. Academic Search Primer and its business counterpart Business Source Primer are excellent examples of this. They were chosen to repalce InfoTrac databases formally used by CUNY. These services offer all the conveniences of print, download and email options, links to useful web sites, image collections of people, places and things and many more toots and whistles for exploration.
