EBSCO Updates DynaMedex, Unveils Business Searching Interface, and Adds Digital Magazines
EBSCO has been busy in April—the first three days of the month saw a new press release for each one. (In March, NewsBreaks shared the launch of DemographicData from EBSCOlearning, an “innovative tool [that] offers comprehensive demographic data and reliable market insights, enabling libraries to effectively support local businesses within their community and assist them in making informed decisions.”)On April 1, EBSCO Clinical Decisions announced the availability of Dyna AI for individual subscribers of DynaMedex. It shares, “Leveraging generative artificial intelligence, Dyna AI delivers evidence-based information to clinicians at the point of care with unprecedented speed and accuracy, now accessible without an institutional subscription. Available on any device, Dyna AI ensures clinicians receive reliable and trusted answers whenever and wherever they need them. Initially launched in July 2024, the mobile capability was introduced in October 2024.” On April 2, EBSCO Information Services introduced Business Searching Interface, which “offers a unique search experience with enhanced navigation, new features and an aesthetic appearance, leading researchers to better insights and decision-making.” It is designed to help business students, faculty, and researchers with their search experience; they can “explore topics with access to leading business journals across various fields and discover featured content including executive interviews, ahead-of-print articles, business news and industry surveys.” Additionally, the interface “facilitates the examination of individual companies, allowing researchers to browse case studies, country reports, industry reports and SWOT analyses.” On April 3, EBSCO Information Services expanded its digital magazine archive with three new databases: Southern Living Magazine Archive (450 issues exploring Southern culture, traditions, and travel destinations), Travel + Leisure Magazine Archive (451 issues of travel news, practical tips, and comprehensive guides to destinations around the world), and Food & Wine Magazine Archive (360-plus issues covering gourmet dining experiences from around the world, food and drink culture, recipes, and culinary expertise). Each is available for one-time purchase so libraries can maintain long-term access to the archive.
