If you will be attending the ALA Midwinter Conference, please visit Readex at NewsBank booth 1311. Our newest collections available for demonstration—either in Dallas or at your desk—include:
Joint Publications Research Service (JPRS) Reports, 1957-1994
This authoritative digital edition is an important supplement to FBIS Daily Reports, 1941-1996. With emphasis on communist and developing countries, JPRS Reports is a uniquely valuable resource for researching socioeconomic, political, environmental, military, religious, and scientific issues and trends.

African American Periodicals, 1825-1995
Drawn from holdings of the Wisconsin Historical Society, African American Periodicals ranges over more than 150 years of American life, from slavery during the Antebellum Period to the struggles and triumphs of the modern era. Like African American Newspapers, 1827-1998, this new collection is based on James Danky’s monumental bibliography. (Request Trial)
