| Brief Description
Communication & Mass Media Complete originated
with the acquisition and subsequent merging of two popular databases
in the fields of communication
and mass media studies -- CommSearch (formerly produced by the
National Communication Association (NCA)), and Mass Media Articles
Index (formerly produced by Pennsylvania State University). CommSearch
offered bibliographic and keyword references to 26 journals in
communication studies. It also included cover-to-cover indices
of NCA’s
6 journals (from their first editions to the present), and abstracts
from their earliest appearance in NCA journals. Mass Media Articles
Index provided citation coverage of over 40,000 articles related
to mass media and published in over 60 research journals, as well
as major journalism reviews, recent encyclopedias, and handbooks
in the area of communications studies.
