EEBO & ECCO: A Revolution in Early Modern Studies

The two most crucial databases for supplementing our materials are easily available through the Georgia State library databases: http://www.library.gsu.edu/

You will also find first and other editions of the main course texts that were published in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

Click on "E" for Early English Books Online (EEBO) AND The Eighteenth-Century Collection Online (ECCO).  From home you will need your campus login.
