An upgrade of the IEEE Xplore Digital Library is scheduled for Saturday, 2 February. During this deployment, the system will be unavailable for up to eight hours beginning at approximately 9:00 AM EST. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
As a result of this new release, the IEEE Xplore digital library will be enhanced with:
Conference Proceedings weekly update alerts
- Enables a user to receive weekly update alerts for every conference title via either email or RSS whenever a new conference proceeding title is added to IEEE Xplore.
Scitopia.org search from the IEEE Xplore home page
- The IEEE Xplore home page will feature a quick search box enabling users to easily search scitopia.org, the free federated search portal to the digital libraries of leading science and technology societies.
Draft standards search
- Users will be able to limit their search to IEEE draft standards only from the Advanced Search page in IEEE Xplore.

IEEE Xplore: Proceedings of the IRE
The IEEE this week made available to its online subscribers the earliest issues of its first technology journal, dating back to 1913.
Currently known as “Proceedings of the IEEE,” the journal was titled “The Proceedings of the IRE” when it premiered in January of 1913.
The IRE (
Institute of
Radio Engineers) was one of two predecessor organizations which merged to form the IEEE in 1963.
This week’s update brings the first seven years of the title online (1913 – 1919). “Proceedings of the IEEE” issues from 1963 forward were previously available online through the IEEE Xplore digital library. Issues from later years will follow in the coming months.
Papers in the first issue included “A Discussion on Experimental Tests of the Radiation Law for Radio Oscillators,” “High Tension Insulators for Radio Communication,” and “Recent Developments in the Work of the Federal Telegraph Company.”
“IEEE has made a commitment to digitizing our entire journal backfile, along with past editions of many of our conference publications,” said Barbara H. Lange, Director, IEEE Publications Product Line Management and Business Development. “This is a small part of a two-year plan to bring our historic, scholarly content to new generations of researchers and practitioners.”
Issues of “Proceedings of the IRE” from 1913 to 1919 can be found online through the IEEE Xplore digital library at: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/RecentIssue.jsp?punumber=10933
IEEE will continue to digitize the historic backfile of its journals over the coming months.
