Market landscape - engineering portals
Jinfo Report

15th February 2017

Abstract

Engineering information resources are available as individual ebook titles or packages, covering one or multiple engineering specialities (see Market landscape - ebook sources for engineering), platforms offering single or multiple indexes to technical journals, conferences and portals with a full suite of content including ebooks, journals, databases, patents and standards.

All vendors offer trial subscriptions to help the information centre staff, engineers and researchers determine which content sources or combination of sources will best meet the needs of the enterprise or firm. A variety of purchase options are available and most vendors are willing to discuss the needs of the enterprise when proposing a quote for subscription or purchase.

This market landscape gives an overview of five engineering platforms and content portals:

Engineering Source from EBSCO
Engineering Village from Elsevier
IEEE Xplore
IHS Engineering Workbench
ProQuest Engineering & SciTech

We provide a brief description of each product and a link to the product page and company's homepage, an overview of the typical users, key features/value and pricing.
