About the project

ProQuest is a platform that positions itself as a tool for improving research, learning and analytics. Search site. request. com operates in the Clarivate ecosystem and offers access to a huge amount of data. The main goal of the resource is to give users the opportunity to find documents, save them and manage the search process through the My Research personal account.

The site interface supports many languages, including Russian, English, Chinese, Japanese and others. This allows you to work with materials from different countries without the need to translate the interface itself. However, the content itself remains in the original language or is available in translation if access is available through the library.

Main directions

Search on the platform covers a variety of types of sources. The user can filter the results by specific categories:

• Scientific journalsand industry publications.
• Booksand brochures.
• Dissertations and thesesare a separate important area for the academic community.
• Video and audio, including podcasts and websites.
• Archival materials: newspapers, periodicals, glossy magazines.
• Government and official publications.
• Standards and methodological guidelines.
• Working documentsand reports.

All of these sections are accessible through a single simple search page, where you can select the source type before running the query.

Site Features
