New Database: Historical Los Angeles Times

I know this is not necessarily a mathematics resource but it may be of general interest... The Albertsons Library has added the Historical Los Angeles Times newspaper database (1881-1985) to its online resources. This new addition along with the Historical New York Times (1851-2003) provides great coverage for those interested in historical newspaper research. These resources are located under "H" for Historical on the Albertsons Library's Article Indexes and Online Database list: http://library.boisestate.edu/indexes/index.htm

Additional newspaper resources including the Idaho Statesman (from 1999-present) are available here: http://library.boisestate.edu/reference/subjectindexes/newspapers.htm
