ProQuest Title Lists

ProQuest Title Lists let you view the publications available from ProQuest. You can either access and download Title Lists from the ProQuest site, or from within your Local Administrator account. In most cases, you will want to download or create a Title List from within your Local Administrator account. This is because Title Lists created through your Local Administrator account have several advantages:

No Duplicate Titles. Some publication titles are included in multiple databases. This means that when you create a Title List from the ProQuest site, you may see the same publication more than once. When you create the Title List through your Local Administrator account, these duplicate references are removed so each title appears only once.
Links to Titles. When you create your Title List through your Local Administrator account using the html format, the titles contain links. When users click on these links, they are taken to that publication, where they can view the available issues.
Create A-Z Link. When you create your Title List through your Local Administrator account, a URL is displayed. You can use this URL to create a shortcut for patrons, when they click on this link they will be able to view all the titles available to them.
