New Database: Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive

  Share

The Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive (Proquest) offers full runs of key trade and consumer magazines in film, broadcasting, popular music and theater, including Variety and Billboard. It contains detailed indexing of entire issues (including ads), full color page reproductions and full-text search capability.

Variety in particular is a heavily cited entertainment industry trade journal, but before now has not been readily available for online access for the years before the 1990s. Currently the coverage for Variety in this database runs from 1951-1975, with more years to be added in the coming months. LexisNexis Academic Universe offers full text access from 1993 to the present. For coverage in other databases, see the ejournals@Emory entry for Variety
