>1999 to discover more than 8 million citations to Books, Periodicals, 
>Newspapers and Government Publications from "The Great Century."
>
>What started as the first, complete electronic edition of Poole's Index to 
>Periodical Literature has continued to grow over the last 7 years, both in 
>depth of content, genre and in functionality.
>
>Links to Full Text Sources
>
>2006 brings new, OpenURL links to full text editions of many of the works 
>cited through 19th Century Masterfile.
>
>-- JSTOR
>-- American Periodical Series (from ProQuest)
>-- Additional sources for newspapers, books and government documents.
>
>Even with the push for digitization of documents into full text, the 
>reality is that only a precious few of the original works which are citied 
>through 19th Century Masterfile have ever been converted to e-form.
>
>However, to the extent that these online texts are available, 19th Century 
>Masterfile is keeping pace, linking any corresponding citations to full 
>text resources.
