The Philosophy Research Index is an and abstracting and indexing database containing bibliographic information on philosophical publications in western languages. It contains over 800,000 citations to a range of philosophical publications, including books, anthologies, scholarly journals, dissertations, and other documents. The first version of the database was launched by the Philosophy Documentation Center

The database offers faceted searching, automatic translation and social networking functionality, and a visual time line for the display of search results, as well as OpenURL linking to fulltext resources. Philosophical topics covered include aesthetics, epistemology, ethics, history of philosophy, logic, metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophy of religion, philosophy of science, political philosophy, and social philosophy. Subject, language, and document type coverage will be expanded, both for current and past publications.
