More than 12,000 journals, dating back to 1990, are indexed in a database of 6,000 Tables of Contents. This comes from over 25,000 publishers, with additional journals and publishers continuously added.

The IQ service includes statistical usage and management data, Web-based journal ordering and more.

For better productivity, the IQ Alert Service is another tool that creates personalized ìclippingî services for IQ clients based on supplied search criteria.
