Link up with an established leader.
In 1938, we began an innovative project to microfilm the earliest English books to preserve them from the devastation of World War II. This incredible foresight helped us to build a collection of 6 billion pages of information, the largest commercial archive of information in the world. Our holdings encompass dissertations, books, historical collections, anthologies, newspapers, and journals in every subject imaginable. We're adding new content in new formats to that remarkable vault of information every day.
Expect unsurpassed quality...
The superiority of our ProQuest online information system has been recognized by the Smithsonian Institution, which has added it to their Permanent Research Collection on Information Technology Innovation. The ProQuest search engine itself has been described by Online Magazine as "groundbreaking." But we don't rest on those laurels. We invest more annually in research and development of new technologies than many information companies earn in revenues. From Historical Newspapers to Digital Microfilm to cutting-edge digital products to enhanced means of discoverability of your content within individual library holdings, this is all part of the unsurpassed value we bring to you.
...and added value.
Industry-leading abstracting and indexing, created by our editorial staff, provide unsurpassed access to this content. Now, capitalizing on our technological developments, we're pioneering efforts in retrospective digitization. ProQuest has begun the largest project in its history - to digitize the microfilm vault and bring its customers electronic access to hundreds of years of newspapers, journals, books and research collections. Any of your publications selected for digitization become available for use within your own organization.
Expand your reach.
Let us extend the reach of your content. ProQuest's range of specialized, subject-oriented databases are delivered to school, library and research communities everywhere. The ability to search for information across hundreds of publications at a time makes ProQuest databases indispensable resources to thousands of students and researchers.
Enjoy additional revenues...
Without further investment on your part, we can incorporate your information into our databases, distribute it through our marketing channels, and pay you royalties on any and all retrievals of your information.
...and peace of mind.
With ProQuest, we go to extreme lengths to protect copyright and promote copyright enforcement. We've developed article blocking and password-protection capabilities for all our databases. Plus, as an information partner, you can receive strategic insights into your publications' distribution success, with reports that analyze usage activity on specific publications by format delivery, industry and geographic markets, all the way down to author and article level.
