ProQuest Newsstand’s detailed indexing helps researchers quickly find the news information they need. The indexing covers not only complete bibliographic information but also subjects, companies, people, products, and geographic areas

Each issue of every newspaper is indexed thoroughly, so your patrons have access to not only top news stories but also detailed information on the arts, sports, business, and popular culture. Even such items as editorials, editorial cartoons, obituaries, and letters to the editor from well-known people are indexed

Additionally, ProQuest Newsstand is fully cross-searchable with other important ProQuest® products including ABI/INFORM®.

For each article cited in the database, an abstract helps the researcher know if the complete text will meet his or her needs. Abstracting and indexing are available for more than 900 papers in ProQuest Newsstand; of these, over 850 are full text.

ProQuest Newstand is available on the Web through ProQuest, a premier information access and retrieval system. It’s suitable for all types of researchers whether they are online novices or information professionals. Natural language searching, database segmenting, and conceptual smart searching are just a few of the features that help users find the exact information they need quickly and easily.

Online subscriptions allow unlimited searching for a set fee, and many libraries have integrated ProQuest databases into their cataloging systems using the ProQuest SiteBuilder™ content integration tool and ProQuest MARC records.
