International Index to Music Periodicals Trial

Our subscription to the Music Index database is coming up for renewal soon. There is a relatively new database called International Index to Music Periodicals (IIMP) that covers similar territory. I have requested a trial of IIMP that will run for the month of November. To access the trial, contact me at lincics@wou.edu to obtain the password and then go to: http://trials.proquest.com/ptc?userid=2048170

An annual subscription to the index-only version of IIMP costs slightly less than a similar subscription to Music Index (which also lacks full-text). IIMP also offers a version that includes full-text for 83 of the more than 400 indexed titles. For those 83 titles, full-text is available for approximately the past eight years of publication. IIMP with full-text is more expensive than Music Index, but not totally out of our reach if you feel that it would be useful enough to justify the additional expense.

Please post your comments here or e-mail me at lincics@wou.edu

I look forward to hearing from you,

Shirley
