Database Trials
Database Trials
The Library regularly runs trials of new online resources that we are considering purchasing.
It greatly helps our decision making to get feedback from academic staff, researchers and students about the resource; we would appreciate your feedback if you are looking at any resources being trialled.
The Library is currently trialling a resource called: EIMA (Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive). This trial will run until the 18th of March.
EIMA is an archival research resource containing the essential primary sources for studying the history of the film and entertainment industries, from the era of vaudeville and silent movies through to the 21st century. The core US and UK trade magazines covering film, music, broadcasting and theater are included, together with film fan magazines and music press titles. Issues have been scanned in high-resolution color, with granular indexing of articles, covers, ads and reviews.
Please click here for the feedback form for Entertainment Industry Magazine Archive. Please take the time to fill out the form when you've finished.
