ProQuest — platform explainer video case study

ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Global is a collection of over five million citations and nearly three million full-text titles. Beyond an aggregated collection, PQDT is a connected network of research. In the newly envisioned PQDT, embedded tools support the user as a researcher and learner, going beyond the delivery of content, and providing the connections needed to make the content they discover actionable.

Explain and visualize how the PQDT collection functions and brings research together while connecting to what’s occurring around the world. The video should illustrate the value of submitting content and being included in the scholarly ecosystem, as well as understanding the value of doing research within the vast and comprehensive database. The target audience for this video is university librarians, deans, and faculty.
