Search & Discovery
Improve your discovery experience with enhanced API access. The Search and Discovery APIs showcase EBSCO Discovery Service features and fit modern technology requirements.
EDS API
EBSCO Discovery Service API (EDS API) is our classic discovery service API. EDS API gives you access to an institution’s entire collection through one entry point: a search box. With EDS API, you can integrate search directly into your library or corporate portal. You can also search and browse full-text databases and popular databases from leading information providers.
EBSCOHOST ENTITLEMENT API
The EBSCOhost Entitlement API enables libraries and partners to resolve customer identity and a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) into a link to EBSCOhost full text, giving patrons easy access to their institution's EBSCOhost database content.
Using the EBSCOhost Entitlement API, libraries and partners can take advantage of EBSCO’s extensive, centralized knowledge base and deep experience in open linking to power external applications. By providing an opportunity to access full text content from EBSCOhost full text databases, specifically PDFs, EBSCOhost Entitlement API makes research easy.
