Virtual Library of Historical Press

Recently, The Culture Department of Spain has put on line a new information service. It is the Biblioteca Virtual de Prensa Histórica, (Virtual Library of Historical Press), through which you can access to periodicals published since the end of the Eighteenth Century. This tool, that can be consulted in all the Spanish official languages and also in English, is the result of a cooperative electronic data processing among the Culture Department, The National Public Libraries, and other institutions for the historical memory. It is intended to preserve and make accessible bibliographic supplies that are unique. The acces to the publications can be done through a list of titles and localities, through a searching engine by title, library where it is located, province or autonomous community, or date of publicaton.
