new e-resources
Alternative press index and Alternative Press Index Archive
Indexes journals covering cultural, economic, political & social change. Archive covers 1969-1990.
Gale Virtual Reference Library
A database of encyclopedias and specialized reference sources for multidisciplinary research.
Primary Sources in Counseling and Psychology, 1950 to present
A searchable collection containing real transcripts of therapy and counseling sessions and first-person narratives illuminating the experience of mental illness and its treatment, as well as reference works to contextualize the primary material.
Rock's Backpages : the ultimate library of rock music writing and journalism.
Rock reviews, articles and interviews from the late 1950s to the present day.
Serial Set Maps
A specialized, additional search module for Readex U.S. Congressional Serial Set, Serial Set Maps allows users to focus searches on the maps themselves - the geographic areas they depict, the subjects they represent, their titles, and the names associated with the maps either as cartographers, explorers, or in some other capacity. Serial Set Maps will eventually cover the full scope of the Readex U. S. Congressional Serial Set. Its current range of coverage is:
Map images, records, and indexing for maps published in Reports and Documents of the 42nd Congress, 3rd session through the 52nd Congress, 1st session.
Covering years: 1872 - 1892
Serial Set Volumes 1544 - 2890
As of November 2007: 10,463 Maps
The folks at Readex are not currently planning on integrating this module into their main Serial Set interface.
