The app is called Access My Library | College Edition, and it's available from the app store. There is a clunky authentication process, but once you are authenticated, you see a map (not sure why), and option to choose to browse the databases, or the eBooks:
I like the way the databases show up - you get a selection of all Gale databases, and clicking on each one takes you directly to the website, which displays nicely on the iPad.
So, there you have it - an app for EBSCOHost and an app for Gale. Will you use these in reference? Will they be convenient - or is it easier to just search through our site on your iPad? Please share your experiences as you move through the term.
