  • 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.

World Textiles is an international resource for information on all aspects of the textiles industry, textile technology, and the application of textiles materials. World Textiles contains scientific, trade, patent, and economic literature that can be used for industrial and scientific research, plant development, manufacturing processes, and commercial development. The database contains current and archival citations to 500 periodicals and non-serial publications from 1970 to the present.
