FTP stands for “File Transfer Protocol.” It is easy to use and efficient way to send data to EBSCO. We will supply you with FTP login credentials (the host URL, username, and password). You can log-in and then drag and drop your files onto the FTP folder.
These files will be mirrored to EBSCO’s server and our Content Management team will retrieve them for processing.
If your company has its own consistent FTP location where we can retrieve new files, you can arrange for us to pull your videos from that location.
Please see the Submission Guidelines for Videos for additional details.
