Academic and professional literature publisher Emerald Group Publishing Limited, UK, has announced an agreement with Knovel, an online resource that helps engineers find reliable technical information. Under the deal, 11 titles from Emerald’s Transport portfolio will be accessible through Knovel’s online database. Over 600 organisations worldwide will now gain access to Emerald’s Transport collection of eBooks as part of their subscription to Knovel.
In July 2009, Knovel launched a Transportation Engineering collection to help engineering firms define, scope and implement ‘shovel ready’ projects. Knovel’s transportation subject area includes technical information engineers need for the design, construction and upgrade of transportation systems and infrastructure for air, rail, coastal areas, offshore, and on the road.
Among the 11 titles provided by Emerald are two of the highly acclaimed Handbooks edited by David Hesher, from the University of Sydney, and Kenneth Button, from George Mason University: Handbook of Transport Geography and Spatial Systems and Handbook of Transport Systems and Traffic Control. Emerald joins a number of other international publishers who have partnered with Knovel for the provision of engineering and scientific content.
