MCB University Press and CHEST announce long-term partnership to
deliver electronic access to the fulltext of more than 100 MCB journals
via Emerald Intelligence + Fulltext
MCB University Press and CHEST have reached agreement for the provision
of Emerald Intelligence + Fulltext to eligible institutions for a fixed
five year period starting on 1st January 1999. Institutions can decide
to join at any time during the term of the agreement and will be bound
until the end of the agreement period.
For a fixed annual payment of #8,995 for Higher Education institutions
or #1,995 for Further Education institutions, electronic access will be
provided to more than 100 MCB journals that make up Emerald
Intelligence + Fulltext both on-line and as a CD-ROM database until
31st December 2003. CHEST and MCB University Press are delighted to
have negotiated this excellent agreement, which is open to Higher and
Further Education in the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland and
the Netherlands.
Nigel Lodge, Director of CHEST, said "This is one of four products from
MCB for which CHEST has negotiated terms which are fixed for five
years. The products enable the academic community to have electronic
access to an additional wealth of specialist fulltext article and
abstract information in a number of subject areas. Institutions will be
able to provide access to content with full search capability at the
desktop."
Mathew Wills, Emerald Brand Manager, said "This is a very significant
agreement. Emerald Intelligence + Fulltext delivers comprehensive
online and CD-ROM access to every article published since 1994 in more
than 100 journals from the UK's leading academic management publisher.
The combination of MCB University Press's high quality journal content
and CHEST's ability to deliver excellent technical solutions and
support, long-term price stability and organisation-wide access will
give the Higher and Further Education Community in the UK, Ireland and
the Netherlands valuable new ways to access management content."
Emerald Intelligence + Fulltext delivers desktop access to a world
leading library of management research journals. The service provides
instant access to more than 20,000 management articles from more than
100 journals with a fulltext archive stretching back to 1994 (with
abstracts to 1989). Areas of coverage include: operations and
production management, economics, marketing and logistics, training and
education, human resource management, library management, property
management, information management, quality management and
engineering.
Further material is added on a monthly basis. Major service features
are as follows:
* three CD-ROMs per year with fulltext archive (1994 - date);
* online database, updated monthly, with full database archive (1994 -
date);
* discounted hardcopy journals available as an optional extra; and
