18 May 2015 – Dallas, London, Sydney – PM World has announced new access to the full
text of 18 major project management books for Scholar members in the PM World Library.
Access is available to full text of the 18 project management books which were published in
the UK and USA between 1999 and 2009, including AMA Handbook of Project Management,
Agile Project Management, Effective IT Project Management, Fundamentals of Project
Management, Identifying and Managing Project Risk, Power of Enterprise-Wide Project
Management, Building Project Management Centers of Excellence, Practical Techniques for
Effective Project Investment Appraisal, Strategy Implementation Through Project
Management, Survival Guide for Project Managers, and 8 more.
Access to the books is available with the new PMWL Scholar memberships, and to those
signing up for the 10-day Free Trial memberships. (If you’ve already gone through a free trial
membership previously, please send an email to [email protected] so you can be set
you up for another free trial.)
According to David Pells, managing director of the PM World Library, “We discovered these
books in the EBSCO Business Source Complete Plus database, apparently made available
by several publishers in the UK and USA. So we created a webpage with direct links to the
books to make it easy for students and other members to access them more easily.”
“These books cover both basic project management and important current topics,” Pells
adds. “So we think they can be very useful, especially for students and those relatively new
to project management. Several were actually best-selling books.”
