Dear EBSCO Customer,

We are pleased to announce plans to release the following EBSCO/host/ 
and EBSCO/admin/ enhancements, in late summer 2006. You will receive a 
final communication about these features, just a few days before they 
become available.

Here are the key components of the upcoming software release. Details 
and screen shots on these features are available here.

On EBSCO/host/:

    * There will be a domain change (/epnet/ will change to
      /ebscohost/); for example, http://search.epnet.com will change to
      http://search.ebscohost.com.
    * EBSCO/host/ will receive a new look to celebrate its 10th
      anniversary.

      checkboxes.

    * Search screen footers will include a link to EBSCO's Support site
      across all interfaces.

    * Reports & Statistics will be enhanced to feature a dashboard of
      graphical and trends report choices.
    * There will no longer be a default selection of the first database

      to OFF.
    * Two new Macromedia Flash tutorials will be added to EBSCO/admin/:
      Multilingual Options and Branding.
    * Library administrators will be able to set Advanced Search as the
