22 October 1999 All current MSOE students, faculty, and staff may search the UMI Databases . UMI produces ProQuest Direct , an online computer library database product which enables users to access journals, periodicals, magazines, newspapers, and other information sources for citations, abstracts, and where available, full-text articles.
Some articles provide graphics, including photos, images, graphs, and charts.
There is almost no overlap with the UMI general reference database journals and the journal titles included here. Topics such as database design, software development, web commerce, LANs, WANs, intranets, and the Internet are well represented. Some of the journals are indexed back to the 1980s, however, many of the titles begin coverage in 1998. Do a Search by Publication to see how far back the coverage is for a particular journal title.
