The EBSCO Scholarly Graph (ESG) is a comprehensive network containing millions of bibliographic records of published creative works as well as the local holdings data from contributing libraries. The ESG captures how the metadata in these creative works link together, such as common co-authors between different works, articles focused on similar subjects, publishers and author affiliated institutions, backwards and forward citations, common synonyms, linked data and national library vocabularies, and much more. The ESG powers many of the EBSCO linked data features such as citation counts, author pages, open web discovery, and advanced researcher recommendations.
New collections released twice per year with zero overlap across sets, covering specific, high-interest disciplines, including business, humanities, medicine, technology and many more
