Fuente Académica Premier Now Available From EBSCO Publishing

EBSCO Publishing (www.ebscohost.com) has expanded its non-English full-text scholarly content with the release of Fuente Académica Premier. This database represents a rapidly growing collection of Latin American, Portuguese, and Spanish-language periodicals. It includes full text for more than 650 scholarly publications and a collection of academic books from 18 countries that will grow to more than 75.

Researchers looking for more international full-text coverage will find all major subject areas covered, with particular emphasis on agriculture, biological sciences, economics, history, law, literature, philosophy, psychology, public administration, religion, and sociology. Search functionality is enhanced through the incorporation of author-supplied keywords in Spanish.

This new resource builds on the coverage of EBSCO's well-received Fuente Académica database. Fuente Académica Premier provides additional academic books, scholarly journals, and a deep backfile that goes back to the very first issue for some titles. Much like other EBSCOhost databases, Fuente Académica Premier makes it possible for institutions to access expanded coverage as their needs and budgets warrant.
