University Libraries Acquire Readers’ Guide Retrospective database
The University Libraries are pleased to announce the acquisition of the Readers’ Guide Retrospective database. This purchase was made with funds from the Libraries’ 2007-2008 Selective Investment Award.
This retrospective database includes the entire content of the Reader’s Guide to Periodical Literature from 1890-1982, which indexes subjects in the popular press. Users can search nearly 3 million articles from 375 leading magazines. The database includes both original and updated subject headings.
Access is available from the Databases & Indexes page of the University Libraries Web site. Enter “Readers’ Guide” in the box labeled “The database I’m looking for is” or click on the letter “R.”
