Electronic research databases provider EBSCO Publishing (EBSCO), US, has lifted the simultaneous user restriction and provided a free upgrade to unlimited access for all Wilson Retro Index customers. Customers with simultaneous user access to the 15 Retro Indexes available from H.W. Wilson will now have unlimited access to those resources.
EBSCO had planned to move WilsonWeb users to the unlimited access model by September but has been able to complete the task much sooner. All WilsonWeb Retrospecitve Index users will maintain their, now unlimited, access when they migrate over to the EBSCOhost platform by the end of the year.
Wilson Retro Indexes include Applied Science & Business Index Retrospective; Applied Science & Technology Index Retrospective; Education Index Retrospective; Essay and General Literature Index Retrospective; Humanities & Social Sciences Index Retrospective; Library Literature & Information Science Retrospective; Readers' Guide Retrospective; and Social Sciences Retrospective, among other. Many other Wilson databases include some sort of restriction on the number of simultaneous users that may access the product. Moving forward, EBSCO will offer individual institutions affordable upgrade options to move to unlimited access.
