Jisc, which provides digital solutions to UK's research and education institutions, has purchased a second collection of 50 titles from ProQuest's Periodicals Archive Online (PAO) resource on behalf of all UK universities, colleges and research councils.
This new collection of 50 additional titles adds to the existing collection of 80 titles already provided by Jisc to its members. These titles will be available as part of an agreement between ProQuest and Jisc, where Jisc enables institutions to have access to these archives at no additional cost to its members.
This selection spans multiple disciplines across the Humanities and Social Sciences, ensuring its relevance and value for a wide range of researchers. With the earliest content dating back to the 19th century, the collection comprises both primary and secondary sources for research.
Titles have been chosen from the Periodicals Archive Online (PAO) collections 6 -10 from ProQuest, to minimise overlap with other electronic archives to which Jisc members already have access.
This new PAO title set will be added to the Jisc ProQuest Archives Collection which includes House of Commons Parliamentary Papers, British Periodicals Collections I and II, Periodicals Archive Online Jisc Collections Selection (80 titles), Early European Books Parts 1-4, and the Vogue Archive. The addition of the new PAO content set increases the value of this collection to researchers by expanding further the depth and breadth of historical and subject coverage available.
