Informit Collections, Australia's premier e-press, provides full text, cover-to-cover access to journals, monographs, conference proceedings, reports and other research materials.

Informit Collections aggregates content from a wide range of sources. The majority of scholarly and research information produced in Australasia is published by a myriad of small academic and professional associations, interest groups and research centres. Many of these organisations publish only one journal but each is a vital contributor to knowledge in their field of expertise.

Informit partners with those organisations to provide a collection of Australasian research online via one interface; in doing this, we enhance the resources by indexing them (down to article, chapter or paper level) and provide that index free to users.

A subscription to Informit Collections provides:

  • A gateway to the very best Australasian research
  • The ability to choose individual journals or titles relevant to your interests
  • Customised content packages to suit your needs and budget
  • The ability to browse the entire collection by title, subject area or publisher
  • Full-text search capabilities, cover-to-cover within each title and across the whole service
