Ebsco is excited to announce that later this summer, we will see significant user interface, content and functionality updates made to our Auto Repair Reference Center subscription.
Some of these upgrades are listed below:
All repairs classified by OEMs, such as Ford, Honda, etc., on a given vehicle will be categorized and made available in the new ARRC user interface
Thousands of repairs (as opposed to hundreds in print repair manuals) for each vehicle will provide the most comprehensive repair coverage available to the Do-it-Yourselfer
Coverage will be provided for many more vehicles than Chilton, with historic repair information dating back to the 1940s
Content indicies will make finding repair information much easier, and will include wiring diagrams, specifications, maintenance intervals, TSBs, recalls and labor guide estimates
A streamlined content update system will ensure currency superior to the manual methods used by other sources
Researchers using the new interface will have more complete access to what they need, by being able to find content from PDFs, including graphics in the repair procedures

This release is expected in the summer, and will simply replace the existing ARRC as soon as it is ready.
