The Wellcome Library has recently taken out a subscription to Oxford Art Online, which offers the ability to access and search the vast content of Grove Art Online and Oxford art reference works in one location. The resource covers all aspects of the visual arts from prehistory to the present day, from art and architecture to ceramics and photography, and is available to readers through PCs in the Wellcome Library.

In other subscription news, the following resources are now available remotely to Wellcome Library readers:

John Johnson Collection
(Provides access to thousands of items selected from the John Johnson Collection of Printed Ephemera at the Bodleian Library, and offers unique insights into the changing nature of everyday life in Britain in the eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth centuries).

House of Commons Parliamentary Papers
(Provides access to over 200,000 House of Commons sessional papers from 1715 to the present day, with supplementary material back to 1688. HCPP delivers page images and searchable full text for each paper, along with a detailed subject index).

British Periodicals, Collections I & II
(Provides access to the searchable full text of hundreds of periodicals from the late seventeenth century to the early twentieth).

Peridicals Archive Online: JISC Collections selection
(An archive of hundreds of digitised journals published in the arts, humanities and social sciences, dating from 1891 to 2000).

These titles add to the other resources to which our readers already have remote access, a complete list of which is available on the Library’s website.
