Educational publisher Gale, part of Cengage Learning, US, has announced the release of Gale NewsVault, a specially designed online platform that enables cross-searching of Gale's enormous range of historical newspaper and periodical collections from a single interface. Providing access to more than 2,000 titles and 10 million digitised pages, Gale NewsVault claims to provide an unparalleled window to the past for researchers and students.
Libraries that have purchased any Gale historical newspaper or periodical collection will have immediate access to Gale NewsVault. Users will now be able to simultaneously search or browse across multiple products offered by their institution. Users will also see an 'Additional Resources' button on their results page, which will enable them to view bibliographic information for documents in all Gale newspaper and periodical collections returned as a result of their query, even if their library has not purchased access to that particular collection.
With Gale NewsVault users can browse by title and by place of publication, as well as cross-browse all content published on the same date. Users can read newspapers cover-to-cover in full screen or – using an advanced image viewer – save, print, highlight, bookmark, grab, pan, zoom and crop content and images.
