The award winning
American National Biography Online and
Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (for British history) are now available through NU Libraries. Within these resources, you are able to search by person, subject, date, or location. For example, you can find major artists who lived in Massachusetts in the late 1800s. Results include lengthy biographical entries and links to related people and themes. The
American National Biography Online includes the
Oxford Companion to United States History so that you can quickly link from a noted figure to article on topics related to that figure.
