The English Short Title Catalogue is now available freely via The British Library and has a new search interface.
The catalog indexes works published primarily in Britain and North America between 1473 and 1800.
Xreferplus, the online ready reference resource, recently changed its name to Credo Reference in an attempt to better signify its strength and reliability as a reference resource for users. The search interface and features remain unchanged.
Credo currently provides users with cross-searchable access to over 3 million entries from 273 titles and 57 publishers and these numbers are growing quickly.
