早期英语图书在线(EEBO)取得成功的基础上,ProQuest启动了一个全欧洲的项目,该项目将追溯欧洲印刷的历史,从其起源(约1450年代)到1700年。早期欧洲图书资源将涵盖现代早期的所有欧洲印刷材料。这些内容来自主要图书馆,包括丹麦皇家图书馆、佛罗伦萨国家中央图书馆、法国国家图书馆、荷兰国家图书馆和伦敦的威康图书馆。随着时间的推移,其他重要的国家图书馆将把馆藏添加到早期欧洲图书中,以便研究人员能够对西方文化的起源和发展进行无缝调查。

作为其类别中的决定性资源,早期欧洲图书允许无限制地访问数千本1701年前出版的书籍和在欧洲印刷的稀有书。它包含了古腾堡在15世纪中叶发明动产之后的两个半世纪,见证了文学在欧洲的空前扩散和传播。宗教作品与当时的主旨一样,占主导地位,但人类思想和活动各个领域不乏世俗材料。

这个广受好评的系列丛书取自各种原始语言的主要来源,为深度奖学金打开了大门,而深度奖学金曾经仅限于存放在遥远机构的脆弱手稿。

早期欧洲图书与学者、稀有图书管理员、书目学家和其他专家合作开发和制作,提供数百万张完全可搜索的页面,直接从原始印刷来源以高分辨率全彩色扫描。每个项目都全部捕获,并附有绑定、边缘、末页、空白页和任何松散的插入。其结果是丰富的信息,关于原始的物理特征和历史。
