Almost 600 journal archives, dating back to the early 19th century.
Periodicals Archive Online provides access to the back issues of almost 600 journals, digitised from cover to cover. These titles span 37 key subject areas within the arts, humanities and social sciences, ranging from literature and history through to women’s studies, psychology and business.
Around three quarters of Periodicals Archive Online journals are principally English-language and all titles must meet strict criteria before being considered for inclusion in this high-quality archive. A wide range of major scholarly titles, such as Journal of Psychology, Philological Quarterly and Sloan Management Review are available. All journals are digitised from their first issue through to 1995 or 2000.
Anyone working, teaching or researching in subject areas under the umbrella of arts, humanities and social sciences will find valuable content within this archive.
Coverage spans 200 years, with the result that, in addition to a wealth of scholarship, there is material with a primary source value, such as first-hand accounts of key events from history and original writings by leading figures from the last two centuries.
The inclusion of Current History and Current History & Forum makes available the complete backfile of the longest-running American publication focussing exclusively on international affairs. Major figures to have contributed include George Bernard Shaw and Winston Churchill. Over 80 years of content are offered, to provide an essential record of world events in the twentieth century.
