Database Trial! The Evening Star 1852-1872
April 24th, 2012 by Mierka
Hey Everyone!
The Performing Arts Library has recently been considering a subscription to a new database, Readex’s The Evening Star. Eventually, this database is supposed to expand through the 1922 issues, but right now it is in early stages and our trial focuses on what they have. It’s a great resource for Antebellum, Civil War, and Reconstruction articles, as well as fashion, lifestyles, and gifts of the 1800s.
Check it out until June 8th at http://bit.ly/Jew6xI
If you are off campus, and want to use the trial, email Steve Henry at shenry@umd.edu.
