Merging Ebsco Accounts

By
If you have inadvertently created more than 1 personal account on an ebsco database (such as Cinahl or Medline), you can now merge those accounts, so that you only have the one account.

You usually create a personal account in order to save articles, searches and alerts. Users who have personal folders associated with two accounts are now able to merge them into one chosen account. Users who have more than two accounts can repeat the process until all accounts are merged into one.

Benefits to merging personal user accounts:

  • You will need to remember only one set of login credentials.
  • All saved articles, searches, alerts, images, videos, etc., will be stored in one folder location.

Once accounts are merged, the account that contained the data that was merged into the target account is permanently removed.

To merge your accounts:

Full details on how to merge your accounts is available on the Ebsco help page. Note that you will need to have the userid/ password for all the accounts that you want to merge.
