The IBIS Worldwide Academic and Library File contains contact information for global universities and academic libraries within those institutes, as well as some other related institutes/libraries found during our research.
Academic Institutes
All our institutes are universities teaching degree level, undergraduate courses and post-graduate studies.
In the UK we have a ‘college’ selection, predominantly made up of non-university FE and HE colleges, adult education colleges, specialist institutes (schools of agriculture, drama and dance etc) and general, non-university tertiary education colleges. This selection criteria is not available outside the UK.
Libraries
We offer a range of different library types for you to target, covering as wide a range of places within a university as possible that will be responsible for buying academic book or journal collections.
Within academic institutes, these are as follows:
Central University Libraries
Faculty Libraries
Departmental Libraries
College Libraries
In the UK, we also hold information on small, medium and large sized public libraries.
In the course of our research, we find non-academic, medical, corporate or other specialist libraries, that we identify as being potential purchasers of academic, medical, scientific or research books and journals. These are available for mailing campaigns only.
Corporate/Institutional Libraries
Medical Libraries
Nursing Libraries
Industrial Libraries (UK only selection)
Research Libraries (UK only selection)

These libraries do not contain named contacts and are sent to ‘The Librarian’.
