New! Latin American Studies Full-Text Online

Amigos is pleased to announce the launch of Latin American Studies Full-Text Online. LatAm-Studies, a companion service to Asia-Studies Full-Text Online, joins together thousands of full-text reports on 46 countries covering South America, Caribbean, Central America and Mexico.

Content is full-text standardized in PDF and covers Latin humanities; social sciences; economics and literature. 95% of the subject matter is licensed from top Latin American and Caribbean institutions and universities, and much of the material for Latin America comes from Latin America, an advantage since so little is included in major U.S. or European scholarly indexing services. Content is accessible in library-friendly terms, including electronic reproduction for research and teaching uses.

The database is bilingual (English language journals will be added later in the year) and includes more than 50 significant Spanish-language, full-text journals and features monthly highlights of notable new research. Substantial statistical reports are structured for easy browsing.

Amigos members are eligible for 10% discount off the list price for new subscriptions and renewals.

Free trials are available. For additional details, contact Gerrye McEntire, mcentire@amigos.org.
