Both come from the nice people at Pro-Quest. The first is Academic Complete, an award-winning scholarly e-book database, yeah, more ebooks. You can read these online or download them, either chapters (40 pages maximum) as imaged PDFs (so no cutting and pasting) or as Adobe Digital Editions format documents (for a maximum of 14 days). You will need to download the free Adobe Digital Editions software before you can use this format. Oh and you can't read these on your Kindle, but you'll be able to read them on most other devices. However there's a large number of books to browse (+80,000) and we'll see about adding some of them to the library catalogue temporarily. Academic Complete is available until the end of the month.
The second is the Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive which is:
The Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive is an archival research resource containing the essential primary sources for studying the history of the film and entertainment industries, from the era of vaudeville and silent movies through to 2000. Includes the core US and UK trade magazines covering film, music, broadcasting and theater are all included, together with film fan magazines and music press titles. Magazines have been scanned cover-to-cover in high-resolution color, with granular indexing of all articles, covers, ads and reviews.That's sound's good, doesn't it?
All feedback on these resources gratefully accepted. And in case you didn't get the links, here they are again
