We are now able to offer access to the online edition of Early American Imprints, Series I. Evans (1639-1800), AND to Series II. Shaw-Shoemaker (1801-1814).
This resource includes the complete text of works cited in Charles Evans’ American Bibliography, as augmented by Roger Bristol's Supplement to Evans' American Bibliography, and the American Bibliography by Ralph R. Shaw and Richard H. Shoemaker.
This searchable online collection provides the comprehensive set of books, pamphlets, broadsides, sermons, songs and many other documents published in colonial America and the early United States, and has long served as the definitive resource for research involving early American history, literature, religion, philosophy, and more.
Access to primary sources is always a challenge for scholars working with rare texts, locked up in archives and special collections in many cities and institutions. Here is a way to have a look at scans of the actual pages of thousands of these texts, and you have the option of downloading or printing PDF or TIFF files of the scanned pages. A very easy and effective search interface is provided. Sample the power of this amazing resource, and we guarantee you will find yourself wanting to spend hours poring over these exceptional texts.
To access this recourse online, please go to our Online Databases page, and choose Early American Imprints. Use your network user ID and password.
