Tip: Consult WorldCat or the print guides to ascertain whether there are interesting works that cannot be accessed except through microforms.
Important: Many additional Early American Imprints have been discovered since publication of the Microprint edition and have been added to the online version of Early American Imprints. The Microprint editions of Early American Imprints, 1638-1800 and Early American Imprints, 1801-1819 at Love Library do NOT include these more recent additions. Some of the more recently discovered works are not readable without a subscription to Readex Early American Imprints, which is not available at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Libraries. Some titles may also be available through HathiTrust or the Internet Archive.
Note: Most of the Corvey collection is available online as part of the Nineteenth Century Collections Online. A few German language titles published after around 1840 do not seem to be included in the online version, but are available in microfiche a UNL.
