Readers’ Guide Retrospective
Monday, March 17th, 2008
The online version (covering 1890-1982) of the venerable and ever popular Readers’ Guide
to Periodical Literature. This new database is sure to be helpful to almost everyone –
especially individuals interested in american history and culture. One of your best
sources if you’re trying to find a contemporary article written about some important
event in the 20th century e.g. life on the homefront in World War II or reaction to Elvis
Presley and his on-stage gyrations. Voted by Library Journal as “One of the 50 Best
Reference Sources for the Millennium.”
