EBSCO has discontinued the American Humanities Index (AHI) and has upgraded all AHI customers to Humanities International Index (HII). HII contains all the content from AHI plus additional humanities content from around the world.

Humanities International Index is a comprehensive database covering journals, books and other important reference sources in the humanities. Produced by Whitston Publishing (an imprint of EBSCO Publishing), Humanities International Index provides cover-to-cover indexing and abstracting for over 1,900 titles with coverage dating as far back as 1925. HII contains more than 1.6 million records and includes all data from American Humanities Index plus bibliographic records from a multitude of international journals, books and reference works. This database provides citations and abstracts for articles, essays and reviews, as well as original creative works including poems, fiction, photographs, paintings and illustrations.

Humanities International Index provides approximately 710,000 more records than American Humanities Index, nearly doubling the humanities coverage made available in AHI.

Humanities International Index can now be accessed via the Library’s list of Electronic Resources & Databases.
