ProQuest has announced that 36,000 titles from Alexander Street's platform are now available on the OASIS® platform, allowing academic librarians to acquire videos in the same workflow they use to order books.
There is a growing demand for varied content, including streaming video, to support research and learning. ProQuest and OASIS aim to offer libraries maximum flexibility in curating their collections. OASIS allows libraries to search, select and order from more than 1.5 million ebooks and more than 35 million print books. By adding video into this same workflow, they are simplifying the steps librarians need to take to build comprehensive collections.
Librarians who use OASIS can search, select and order videos from key publishers like Sony Pictures Classics, BroadwayHD™, the Royal Shakespeare Company, A&E TV, the BBC and PBS. The videos cover timely and popular topics, supporting curriculum in nearly every discipline – including healthcare, anthropology, history, environmental studies, diversity studies, theatre, music and dance.
