Proquest brings 2,000 journals to your desktop

The General Library System has added more horsepower to its collection of electronic databases: Proquest Research Library.

Proquest contains citations from 2,000 journals, many of them commonly used by undergraduates. About half of them offer full-text versions of articles for monitor display, printing or e-mailing.

When you combine Proquest with another GLS database, Academic Search, you can gain full-text access to about 1,500 journals.

Proquest can be accessed through any infolab computer on campus or through WiscWorld at home. It previously had been available only on four computers at College Library.

“My goal is to build a superlative electronic library for undergraduates,” says Donna Senzig, director of College Library, “and Proquest is one more step in that direction.”
