History @ CUL

History Compass now at CUL

The Library has recently subscribed to History Compass from Wiley-Blackwell. According to its publisher, History Compass is “an online-only journal publishing peer-reviewed state-of-the-field articles of the most important research and current thinking from across the entire discipline.” Articles are published in a number of different sections:

• Africa
• Asia
• Australasia and Pacific
• Britain and Ireland
• Caribbean and Latin America
• Europe
• Middle and Near East
• North America
• World

You can find out more about History Compass at the journal web site at www.history-compass.com.

When History Compass was first published, several faculty members who reviewed it had enough reservations that the Library decided not to subscribe.  A number of recent requests from faculty and students have led to a reconsideration of that decision.  Thoughts on its usefulness are welcome and should be sent to Peter Hirtle at peter.hirtle(at)cornell.edu.
