The UC Libraries have arranged a trial of 19th Century Masterfile, which provides a single access point for over 70 indexes of 19th century newspapers, periodicals, books, and UK and US governement documents. Records in the search results include the UC e-Links button to provide easy access to full-text content that The Library pays for. Other links to resources we may subscribe to (like Readex) or freely available resources (like HathiTrust or Google Books) are also provided.
The trial runs through 3/30/13. Your comments on the resource are welcome. You can leave them here or send them to me at jdorner@library.berkeley.edu.
