The license for the EBSCO E-book Academic Collection is extended for another two years (until 31 August 2021) because of the positive evaluation results on the usage of the collection. This growing subscription package contains a large selection of multidisciplinary e-books, representing a broad range of academic subjects. This ensures that students and scholars will have access to a lot of relevant information.

Evaluation
