Burney database now at the Library of Congress

The Library of Congress has now obtained the “17th – 18th Century Burney Collection Newspapers” database.

It also has the following electronic resources:

19th CenturyBritish Library Newspaper Collection

19th Century UK Periodicals

British Periodicals

ECCO, Part I and II

EEBO (at long last, but not the Text Creation Partnership searchable part)

and plenty of fine American stuff

Abby Yochelson, a Humanities Librarian at the LC, noted, “Sometimes it’s tricky to find the listing for the database if it starts with 19th because it can be listed as 19th or Nineteenth, but generally not both. Do a keyword search on other parts of the title!”
