EBSCO started in 1944, when our eponymous Elton B. Stephens and his wife Alys began to sell magazine subscriptions, magazine racks and personalized staplers to the U.S. Armed Forces. For more than 70 years, EBSCO has developed into a global company with more than 6,000 employees and more than 20 businesses worldwide.
While we have expanded and evolved overtime, we continue to be driven by the same entrepreneurial spirit that inspired the founders, and we will continue to work to help our community and our team reach their full potential.
