Historical Abstracts

We are currently running a trial of the Historical Abstracts database via EBSCOhost. Historical Abstracts covers the history of the world (excluding US & Canadian history) from 1450 to the present including world history, military history, women's history, history of education, and more. Coverage currently goes back to 1955 but Historical Abstracts is working on a retrospective indexing project that, upon completion, will provide indexing for the most important historical journals back to the late 19th century. Our trial of Historical Abstracts runs through the end of the fall semester, 2007.
