The products have new additional periodical content on almost a daily basis. Other uploads of content occur usually on a quarterly basis. As always, the very latest listing of all content contained within Gale databases is at the Database Title Lists at Gale.com.

InfoTrac OneFile Periodical Database

On an ongoing, systematic basis, Thomson Gale is increasing the number of journals in our databases. In the last few months of 2004 and up until today, hundreds of peer-reviewed journals have been added to the databases, with hundreds more to be added before year-end. We are currently working on agreements with large, renowned publishers that will bring hundreds of their titles into InfoTrac. Special focus is being paid to the areas of science, technology and medicine.

Thomson Gale is also paying close attention to the Open Access movement and hopes to bring that content into our databases, as well. Over 75 open access journals have already been added to the databases as part of this initiative.

Thomson Gale is pleased to report that users in Washington now have more than 7,000 periodicals available to them via InfoTrac. Thus far in 2005, Thomson Gale added more than 600 periodical titles to our products, with many more in the pipeline.

We will continue to ensure that InfoTrac maintains its status as the largest full-text, periodical file on the market – with over 48 million full-text articles.

Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center

Recent Enhancements

• The full-text periodical filter has been returned to the database: OVRC again features only full-text periodicals---no abstracts or index-only entries • 474 Web links have been added or updated, for a total of 2000 in the database

Look for increased frequency of uploads: Gale editorial is working hard to close the gap between when a print titles publishes and when it appears in OVRC.

Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center draws on the acclaimed social issues series published by Greenhaven Press, as well as core reference content from other Gale and Macmillan Reference USA sources, including selections from Bioethics for Students. The result is a dynamic online library of current event topics--the facts, as well as the arguments, of each topic's proponents and detractors. OVRC's unique features include Topic Overviews -- frameworks which allow students to explore each topic's many facets -- and exclusive electronic access to Gale's Information Plus reference program of statistics, government data, legislation and more.

Coming soon to the OVRC:

• Civil Rights in the United States (Macmillan), which directly supports the 2005--06 National Debate Topic: U.S. Civil Liberties.

• History in Dispute: Middle East (Volumes 14-15) • Critical thinking and writing content to support the SAT and ACT timed writing tests

OVRC now includes more than 135 full-text periodicals and newspapers.

The following is a list of records that have been loaded into OVRC since January 2005.
