ProQuest and Melbourne University Publishing (MUP) recently announced an agreement providing academic libraries access to 630 titles via the Ebook Central platform, where they can acquire them by demand-driven acquisition or single-title purchase. For the first time ever, nearly the entire catalogue of titles from MUP is now available to academic libraries.
MUP was founded in 1922 at the University of Melbourne with a mandate to publish fine writing from the university and beyond, contributing to public discourse. MUP is renowned for its award-winning books covering a wide range of subjects and genres important to academic library patrons - including politics, current affairs, history, art, cultural studies, science and more. MUP’s titles are published under three main imprints: MUP, The Miegunyah Press and Victory Books.
With Ebook Central, researchers can search for and pinpoint MUP content at the title, chapter or sub-chapter level; read books online or download them for later use; and highlight passages or make annotations for later reference. These titles join Ebook Central's collection of more than 1 million titles from distinguished publishers around the globe.
