The Library has just added two new database subscriptions:

The Times Digital Archive, 1785-1985

Contains full facsimile images of either a specific article or a complete page from The Times (London). The entire newspaper is captured, with all articles, advertisements and illustrations/photos divided into categories to facilitate searching.

Sabin Americana, 1500-1926

Contains books, pamphlets, serials and other documents about the Americas that provide original accounts of exploration, trade, colonialism, slavery and abolition, the western movement, Native Americans, military actions and much more. Based on Joseph Sabin's landmark bibliography, this collection is a cornerstone in the study of the western hemisphere.

Access these databases from the library's "Find Databases A-Z" link by title or subject.

"Please note that access to all collections, and in particular our music collections, could be affected for up to 20 minutes at a time between 8 AM and 6 PM.
