e-research and educational publisher Gale, part of Cengage Learning, US, and publisher Greenwood Publishing Group, US, have enhanced their partnership to include more high-demand Greenwood titles. This includes more than 130 titles released in 2008 as eBooks on Gale Virtual Reference Library. Previously, only titles published prior to 2005 were available on Gale Virtual Reference Library.
The Gale Virtual Reference Library allows librarians to adapt their reference collection to meet the changing needs of their patrons - offering researchers simultaneous, 24/7 remote access to titles with no special reader or hardware required. The new content expands the depth and breadth of the reference available through the Gale Virtual Reference Library, which in addition to several Gale imprints, includes over 2,000 titles from other leading publishers.
Greenwood Publishing Group is one of the leading publishers of reference titles, academic and general interest books, texts, books for librarians and other professionals, and electronic reference resources. With over 18,000 titles in print, GPG publishes close to 1,000 books each year.
