ProQuest, part of Cambridge Information Group, US, has launched what is claimed to be the largest aggregated full-text database for libraries. The new database, called ProQuest Central, serves as a foundational research collection for academic libraries. It offers more than 11,000 titles (8,000 in full text) and over 160 subject areas covering core academic disciplines.
ProQuest Central's coverage of over 160 subject areas include core disciplines such as business and economics, medical and health, news and world affairs, science, education, technology, humanities, social sciences, psychology, literature, law and nursing.
Currently available, the database combines content from publishers such as Cambridge University Press, Emerald Group Publishing, MIT Sloan Management Review, Palgrave, Oxford University Press and Dow Jones. Multiple content types are available, including scholarly and general reference journals, newspapers, full-text dissertations, company annual reports, industry reports, country reports and working papers.
