Distributions, Indexing and Abstracting

Distribution and Indexing

Open access, dissemination through international platforms and the up-to-date release of usage statistics enable authors, research institutions and public funders to achieve extensive and rapid dissemination and a high impact for their research.

To increase discoverability, accessibility and sharing of peer-reviewed research, FUP engages in a continuous indexing activity of its books and book chapters on international hosting and dissemination platforms.

Research libraries, as well as for-profit and non-profit indexing services, are encouraged to list FUP’s series, books, and book chapters among their electronic resources.

Our metadata is fully available for download in multiple formats (XML etc.) and from any indexing service (OAI-PMH etc.). The metadata is released under a Public Domain Dedication (CC0 1.0) licence.


FUP books and book chapters are indexed in the major international resources:


  • Bibliographical databases, library catalogues and search tools
  • Metadata and full texts Open-Access databases
  • Archiving and conservation databases
