ProQuest, part of Cambridge Information Group, US, has announced that the full suite of ProQuest Central database products is now available to members of the Institute of Information Science (IZUM) throughout Slovenia through a subscription arrangement. The breadth of content in ProQuest Central is seen to be well suited to meet the information needs of IZUM's growing community of university, high school and special libraries.
ProQuest Central is projected as the largest aggregated full-text database in the market currently, totalling more than 11,600 titles, of which 8,700 titles are in full text. The licence agreement with IZUM is expected to both enable access to content for academics, and help subscribing institutions throughout Slovenia attract the best researchers from around the globe. It follows a similar agreement made recently in Bulgaria.
From primary scholarly journals, popular trade publications, company reports and dissertations to newspapers, newsletters and newswires, ProQuest Central seeks to provide global coverage of a wide range of disciplines. It also provides full-text content from several leading publishers across the world, including full-text titles from Cambridge University Press and Dow Jones. Current and international content is provided in over 160 subject areas including business and economics, medical and health, news and world affairs, science, education, technology, humanities, social sciences, psychology, literature, law and women's studies. ProQuest Central also seeks to offer sophisticated content indexing and platform features.
