ProQuest 4 Debuts at ALA with IntelliDocs
Bell & Howell's Information and Learning (http://www.infolearning.com) business unit (formerly UMI) premiered the latest release of its research system, ProQuest, at the American Library Association (ALA) annual conference in Chicago. This version will be released to customers July 31. It provides a number of enhancements to the user interface, and to the electronic usage reports. According to the company, the most significant addition to ProQuest is a new, intelligent document-linking capability, called IntelliDocs. Clicking on people, places, and companies that are highlighted in the full text of articles will link to a suite of additional reference sources. Sources include World Book Encyclopedia, Best of the Web (relevant sites on the Web), company profiles from Dow Jones, and the library's local OPAC. More quality sources will be added in the coming months.Source: Bell & Howell Information and Learning
