• Optimized for mobile devices: The EBSCOhost Mobile interface has been optimized for use on a mobile device with a smaller screen. When this interface is viewed on a normal sized computer screen, the interface will appear stretched with fewer features available than the standard EBSCOhost interface.
  
  
• Because EBSCOHost is provided as part of the BadgerLink project, you may be able to access it through their page: http://www.badgerlink.net
  
  
• If you still cannot access EBSCOHost, contact your local public library for assistance.
