Cambridge Collections Online: A new online resource
Cambridge Companions Online, the first product to be launched within the Cambridge Collections Online platform, is a fully searchable, full text collection of over 300 titles from the renowned Cambridge Companions series. Covering literature, classics, philosophy, religion and cultural studies, the collection complements the Cambridge Companions book series - an established favourite with students and scholars - by providing search, browse and bookmark functionality. Over 3,000 essays are already included in the collection, with more set to be added as new volumes are published.
Subscriptions to the whole collection, or to two smaller subject-based collections are available to both academic and specialist libraries. Pricing is dependent on the number of Full Time Equivalents (FTEs) per institution. No restriction is placed on usage during the course of the subscription. Librarians will be able to utilise a host of resources throughout, including downloadable MARC21 records, comprehensive usage statistics and remote user access.
The Complete Companions Collection is also available on a subscription basis to individuals, whilst all users worldwide are welcome to browse, search and view book and chapter extracts freely.
We will regularly post information about new additions to the Collections (both titles and features) on this page. If you would like to be kept informed, please bookmark and revisit this page.
