On trial: ProQuest One Literature

We are pleased to announce trial access for ProQuest One Literature. This database gathers the largest literature collection which includes multi-media resources with a focus on diversity. The resource acts as a single destination for research, learning and teaching with millions of sources.

Highlights include:

• Access to more than 3 million literary criticism citations, dissertations, ebooks, videos and journals which ensure that students and researchers can fully investigate the sources available for their literary research questions.
• Half a million primary works written over 1,000 years by authors from over 65 nations which includes the ProQuest Black Writing Collection, and the World Literature Collection.
• 150,000 diverse primary texts from authors that are less well known.
• Works of Western Literature which covers prose, drama and poetry spanning from the eighth century to the present day.
• 18,000 encyclopaedias, dictionaries and companions which help to provide context and background.
• Over a million bibliographic citations using the Annual Bibliography of English Language & Literature (ABELL).

ProQuest One Literature presents a discipline specific approach to make research more relevant and comprehensive for staff and students, with diverse material and multiple formats. The resource is community-centric which uses collaboration with faculty and library groups, and content will continue to evolve and expand to support the needs of the users.

The trial runs from 1^st May for one month.
