From 26 July 2024, EBSCO will perform scheduled maintenance on the backend systems which may last up to 10 days. During this scheduled maintenance:

  • Access to EBSCO interfaces and databases will not be affected.
  • Users will experience a pause in the availability of new or updated content for EBSCO products, including e-books and research databases.
  • Online Help in the classic EBSCO user interfaces will not be available while this Help content is accessible from the Product Help menu on EBSCO Connect.

Linguistics Abstracts Online contains abstracts in English of linguistics articles appearing in more than 140 journals from over 20 countries. Each abstract is classified and cross-classified according to area. The system allows you to search for journal articles using any combination of journal, title, subject, date, author or keyword.
