Title: Full-text search libraries
Post by: Simon on Friday 21 August 2020, 05:13


Hi!

I'm wondering if members have recommandations for websites offering full-text search of 19th- and early 20th-century music newspapers. I'm using some of these to dive deep into reviews of unsung repertoire, but there might be other interesting sources I'm unaware of. All of these are not always user friendly, but here are some I already know:

- jstor.org
- Gallica.bnf.fr
- delpher.nl
- anno.onb.ac.at
- belgicaperiodicals.be
- digizeitschriften.de
- archive.org
- Google Books

Thanks!

Here is a list of links to free sites that I have used – and no, they are not all user friendly. Some only have newspapers and not journals, but they may still prove useful.
