ProQuest is going global. Global in the sense of crossing product categories to bring a universal user experience, global as in "multinational," and global in that the company is not limiting itself to a single library market segment or user group. At least that's what ProQuest CEO Kurt P. Sanford told me in an interview during the Frankfurt Book Fair last fall. Our conversation lasted only 30 minutes, but in that short span of time, Sanford spoke 5,000 plus words. I can share only half of them here, but hopefully that's enough to reveal the truth, because what's so clear about the full narrative is that Sanford's a man who knows his business.

机译：ProQuest正在走向全球。在跨产品类别的意义上说，“全球”可以带来通用的用户体验，“跨国公司”则是全球性的，而“全球”则是公司不会将自己限制在单个图书馆市场领域或用户群中。至少那是ProQuest首席执行官Kurt P. Sanford在去年秋天的法兰克福书展上接受采访时告诉我的。我们的对话只持续了30分钟，但在那段短时间内，桑福德说了5,000多个单词。我只能在这里分享其中的一半，但希望这足以揭示真相，因为完整的叙述很清楚的是，桑福德是个了解他的生意的人。
