What is happening to the databases for Left Coast Press?
ProQuest currently has title-level information for the Left Coast Press databases from providers MetaPress and Left Coast Press in the 360 KB knowledgebase. University of California Press now publishes the two journals from Left Coast Press, which was formerly hosted on the MetaPress platform.
In order to maintain accurate and authoritative provider metadata (based on the 360 KB collection policy, all titles will be removed from Left Coast Press databases and the databases will be hidden in 360 KB. As the titles have already moved to the University of California Press platform, the migration will be effective immediately: October 7.
