ProQuest Adds 1,650 ebook Titles to Academic Complete

By Africa S. Hands

From ProQuest:

Complete®, the flagship ebook database from ebrary®. The new content will improve research outcomes, while a new enhancement for the database – the popular LibraryThing for Libraries™ Book Display Widget – will enable libraries to easily display the titles visually for better discoverability and usage.

All new and renewal subscriptions to Academic Complete will include the LibraryThing for Libraries Book Display Widget, enabling libraries to create virtual book displays of key titles on their homepage, catalog, Facebook page, blog and other digital display areas. ProQuest pre-loads the widget for libraries to make set-up fast and easy.
