Hi!

Well done -- I think you have identified the most important things for your
users about the new EBSCOhost UI!

The one thing that (if memory serves) the CINAHL EBSCOhost UI used to have
but lacks in the new EBSCOhost UI is the Cited by feature, but EBSCO is
building that feature back in (
https://connect.ebsco.com/s/article/How-does-the-new-EBSCO-Cited-By-feature-work?language=en_US
)

It sounds like you have already reviewed EBSCO's documentation and video
tutorial (
https://connect.ebsco.com/s/article/Introduction-to-the-New-EBSCOhost-Tutorial?language=en_US
) -- the filters documentation was particularly of note. If you think users
might find a working demo useful, the free EBSCO Open Research site at
https://research.ebsco.com/c/ylm4lv/search is an EBSCO Discovery Service
instance (EBSCO's counterpart to UMB's Alma Primo discovery service) that
uses the same UI.

Best,

Gus
