(19 August 2016) IGI Global has announced a major database expansion due to the growth of its book collection. Throughout the next copyright year, IGI Global will publish over 400 new peer-reviewed reference titles which can be utilized by researchers in the InfoSci-Books database.
The expanding collection contains two new book types, Research Insights and Critical Explorations, that were developed based on customer demand:
- Research Insights are comprehensive, authored publications that cover emerging research on a variety of topics. This new book type will provide an in-depth look at niche areas of research.
- Critical Explorations are mini-compilations of full-text content which include an overview of peer-review content that is useful to undergraduate and graduate students. These new multi-volume publications will gather crucial information for you and your students.
These two new types of publications will become part of the existing IGI Global book collection, which also contains:
- Encyclopedias: In-depth research coverage and expansive knowledge focused on a particular discipline or topic area. They are published in 3-10 volume sets.
