Integration of OUP’s books collection with accessible reading devices and applications will further support 33,000 learners with a print-disability in accessing academic and educational materials
Oxford University Press (OUP) has today announced the migration of its books content to Oxford Academic—the online platform for its academic research. The expansion of the platform to include books, as well as journals, will further the reach of academic resources from OUP and society partners. As it stands, more than 42,000 books and over 500,000 chapters have so far been uploaded to Oxford Academic, joining the 500 journals and approximately 3 million journal articles already hosted on the platform.
