Serials Solutions, a ProQuest business unit, has announced that its Summon service has reached an agreement to index L'Année philologique, an A&I database published by the Société Internationale de Bibliographie Classique, in collaboration with the French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and the American Philological Association (APA).
L'Année philologique is a specialised bibliography tool for research in classical studies covering 84 years of classical bibliography since its founding in Paris in 1926. The goal of L'Année philologique is to collect annually scholarly works relating to every aspect of Greek and Roman civilization including authors and texts, literature, linguistics, political, economic and social history, attitudes and daily life, religion, cultural and artistic life, law, philosophy, science and technology, and the history of classical studies. Significant space is accorded to the auxiliary disciplines—archaeology, epigraphy, numismatics, papyrology and paleography.
The L'Année philologique database indexes over 1,500 periodicals, with an additional 500 articles from collections. Articles include abstracts in English, German, Spanish, French, or Italian.
