Creating Projects

Projects help you save and organize things you find in EBSCOhost databases—like articles, eBooks, and more.  If you're working on more than one assignment, you can make a separate Project for each one. That way, all your articles stay organized by assignment. You can also add a due date to each Project to help you keep track of deadlines.

 

To create a Project:

1. Make sure you are signed into your MyESBSCO account.

2. Click Projects under My dashboard in the column on the left.
