The free app works from any Android or iOS device, proving access to full-text articles, peer-reviewed papers, eBooks and more!


With the new EBSCO app and mobile web interface, VDOT Library patrons now have a pocket-sized, multi-faceted research tool they can take with them for use anytime and any place they need it!

 

This online guide for using the EBSCO Mobile App will help you download and install the app (which is free for any VDOT employee), connect to the VDOT Research Library, then continue your research projects with EBSCO databases even when you’re on the go, thanks to syncing across desktop and mobile devices.

 

This mobile app searches all of VDOT's EBSCO subscriptions, including: Business Book Summaries, Business Source Corporate Plus, EngineeringCore eBooks, BusinesCore eBooks and Harvard Business Review Press eBooks.That's literally tens of millions of articles, ebooks and summaries, plus, users can read or listen to the content they discover.

 

How's that for a cool way to "read" items of interest on your next morning walk?

 

Using the app you can link to premium full-text content, view it in PDF and HTML (depending on what format is available for each work), and download and read EBSCO eBooks to your heart's content.  You can also pull up recently viewed items, run recent searches and save them, find new content based on your previous activity, synchronize files with your normal computing device, share links to full-text items with friends and colleagues at VDOT.

All this power in a tiny and simplified interface that doesn’t overwhelm or intimidate the user. The result is a convenient, mobile, personalized workspace that benefits busy professionals on the go.
