The Philosophy Research Index is an indexing database of bibliographic information on articles, books, reviews, dissertations, and other documents in philosophy. It uses the best available technology to increase bibliographic coverage of the known philosophical literature in several western languages. Coverage includes current and recent materials, as well as older literature back to the 15th century. The largest portion of this coverage is in English, but the databae contains listings of items in many other languages. Current listings and features include:

The metasearch allows PRI users to search the fulltext of all 117,000+ documents in our fulltext E-Collection and all 35,000+ listings in our International Directory of Philosophy.

The translation function helps users combine all results into English, and social networking functionality facilitates information sharing. The database is OpenURL ready and an extended librarians' view is available for each citation.

Anyone can set up a free trial to PRI to test its functionality. Full access is provided on a subscription basis to institutions. Income from subscriptions helps us improve functionality and expand coverage. The goal is to build complete bibliographic coverage of all philosophical literature.

What PRI Currently Covers

As of May 2013 the database contains over 1.21 million bibliographic listings.

Coverage of many titles is complete, from volume 1 to the present. Electronic feeds from publishers and journals projects help maintain and extend coverage of relevant publications. Our editorial team enters other data from print or electronic sources as available.

Topics covered include: aesthetics, epistemology, ethics, history of philosophy, logic, metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophy of religion, philosophy of science, political philosophy, and social philosophy. The scope of this coverage is expanding as more data is added.

Outlines of complete listings are provided in the Submissions Guidelines.
