The Library is providing access to several databases on a trial basis through the end of March, via our Database Trials page!

Several of these databases provide access to primary source documents and archival material, including:

  • American Fiction, 1774-1920 (from Gale)
  • Crime, Punishment, and Popular Culture, 1790-1920 (from Gale)
  • Archives of Human Sexuality and Identity (from Gale)
  • Declassified Documents Reference System (from Gale)
  • Early Arabic Printed Books from the British Library (1475-1900) (from Gale)
  • African American Communities Database (from Adam Matthew)
  • AM Explorer: Americana (from Adam Matthew)
  • Popular Medicine in American, 1800-1900 (from Adam Matthew)
We also have trial access to Data-Planet Statistical Datasets, which provides access to an extensive repository of statistical data and allows users to search and manipulate the data in multiple ways.

For more information and to access these trials, visit the BSC Database Trials page at http://library.bsc.edu/databasetrials.html (access is restricted to the BSC community and you will be prompted to log in with your BSC credentials from off campus).  The Library welcomes your feedback!
