We have trial access to the Annual Register until the end of May. Access is from the Electronic Resources Trials page on the Library Web.

Product Description: The Annual Register is a classic reference work providing historians and students with information on the major and minor events of the last two and a half centuries, as they were seen by contemporaries. From James Cook’s landing on the shores of Australia to the Iraq war, The Annual Register contains a wealth of information with reports on every country in the world. The new printed volume of The Annual Register will be added to the digital version every year.

Coverage / Backfile: Annual issues from 1758-2007 are currently available in The Annual Register online. In 2009 the 250th anniversary edition of The Annual Register will be published and this will be added to the online version before the end of 2009.
