Pop Culture
Pop Culture Universe: Icons |
Idols | Ideas (PCU) is an authoritative, yet irresistible, digital
library of information on American and world popular culture, past and
present—in a package as dynamic as the topic it covers.
Built on hundreds of award-winning titles for all levels of
researchers, PCU provides a safe haven for investigating topics that
appeal to students—without the bias, advertising, suggestive content, or
questionable authorship of commercial or fan sites.
Combining the best of traditional scholarship with the convenience of
Web technology and the fun inherent in the subject, PCU advances the
study of pop culture and pop history, promotes information literacy,
integrates a subject of universal appeal into the classrooms of high
schools and colleges, and enriches the school and public libraries that
support them.
Features include:
- Supersize your collection: More than 300 full-text
volumes of material—a digital pop culture library, plus tons of
additional features—for a fraction of the print price
- Drive usage: Subject matter that has universal appeal
among your patrons
- Present your content the way teachers teach it: Decades
Pages that offer a fast, easy, and coordinated way to support
history, literature, social studies, and the humanities
- Trust your content: Vetted by experts—not a fly-by-night
fansite or gossip page
- Forward your mission: A new Skills Center that teaches
students valuable research skills, media literacy, and appreciation
for the past and its connection to the world they live in
- Spread a little sunshine: A home for students and patrons
who love immersing themselves in the pop culture of yesterday and
today. The PCUBlog provides fresh opinion and commentary from
authors, editors, and students while connecting users to PCU
content.
