ProQuest can be purchased by corporations. The Wikimedia Foundation is a
corporation. Typically a University will give their students access. We
could give access to established editors.

It would not have to be free. And at ProQuest you don't have to subscribe
to every database. We might, for example, take a special interest in
Black newspapers:

Or any other area which might advance our mission in a special way.
