A selection of titles covering a longer period is available from series IV and V as well. Access to the American State Papers, 1789-1838 is also included.

The collection has the full texts of more than 150 popular eighteenth-century periodicals published in Great Britain. The journals were drawn from the Hope Collection at the Bodleian Library in Oxford and from the sources at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center.
