ProQuest Day - London

Join us for an exciting ProQuest day dedicated to discussing the latest trends in the development of collections of electronic resources that aid research outcomes; ebooks; discovery tools and solutions for management of libraries.

We will discuss how researchers are expanding their search beyond scholarly journals to explore multiple content types and how ProQuest is supporting libraries and inspiring researchers with bold new information collisions.

Our team of experts will discuss the latest product launches and content updates.
