Trials until 9th August: African American Periodicals and African American Newspapers

We now have trial access to two major databases of African American Periodicals and Newspapers until 9th August.

African American Periodicals, 1825-1995
African American Periodicals, 1825-1995, features more than 170 wide-ranging periodicals by and about African Americans. Published in 26 states, the publications include academic and political journals, commercial magazines, institutional newsletters, organizations bulletins, annual reports and other genres. 

African American Newspapers, 1827-1998
African American Newspapers, 1827-1998, provides online access to approximately 270 U.S. newspapers chronicling a century and a half of the African American experience. This unique collection features papers from more than 35 states—including many rare and historically significant 19th century titles. 

Both are now available via OxLIP+ (sign in for remote access). Please send comments and feedback to jane.rawson@bodleian.ox.ac.uk
