Create new Brill database, Qurʾānic Studies Online
Brill now has a collection called Qurʾānic Studies Online (URL http://referenceworks.brillonline.com/cluster/Qur%CA%BE%C4%81nic%20Studies%20Online?s.num=0) which contains 3 resources:
- Dictionary of Qurʾanic Usage, http://referenceworks.brillonline.com/browse/dictionary-of-quranic-usage
- Encyclopaedia of the Qurʾān, http://referenceworks.brillonline.com/browse/encyclopaedia-of-the-quran
- Qurʾān Concordance, http://referenceworks.brillonline.com/browse/quran-concordance
Right now, the Brill Online Reference Works database (JQX), which only has 19% coverage in Summon, includes these this way:
- Dictionary of Qurʾanic Usage (9789047423775 Book)
- Encyclopaedia of the Qur’ān Online (1875-3922 Journal)
- Encyclopaedia of the Qur’ān. Supplement I - Early Western Qur’āns (Book)
- Encyclopaedia of the Qur’ān. Supplement II - Qur’ān Concordance (Book)
There's also a separate database (FNQ) called Encyclopaedia of the Qur’ān, which contains 52 titles and says it has 100% coverage in Summon.
It's difficult to know what to subscribe to in order to provide the most accurate and complete access via Summon.

Hello,
We will reach out to Brill and check the options for such a database.
Kind regards,

Today, the Client Center indicates 87% coverage in Summon for JQX (up from 19% 3 years ago) and no percentage is given for FNQ.
