EBSCOhost is the interface we use for popular databases such as CINAHL and Psycinfo. UVA Libraries are migrating to the new EBSCOhost user interface (UI) starting on June 30, 2025. The new EBSCOhost UI was designed by EBSCO's User Experience Research Team after collecting customer feedback, usage data, and usability studies. EBSCO's update to their database UI brings a modern look and new functionality to the platform including a personalized dashboard and enhanced filters. The new UI improves accessibility in partial conformance with level AA of the WCAG 2.1 standards.
