====== English Short-Title Catalogue (ESTC) ====== The English Short Title Catalogue (ESTC) is available for [[https://datb.cerl.org/estc|searching]]. The editing and export functionality will be added in the course of 2025. As before, it will be freely available. The ESTC is an essential resource for historians, English language and literature scholars, and all those interested in early printed books, periodicals and ephemera. It aims to provide bibliographic records for all known British printed material before 1801, held by the British Library and over 2,000 other institutions worldwide. Additionally, CERL’s [[https://kxp.k10plus.de/DB=1.77/LNG=EN/?COOKIE=U999,K999,D1.77,Eca1994e5-3,I0,B9994++++++,SY,QDEF,A,H12,,73,,76-78,,88-90,NGAST,R81.204.60.85,FN|HPB Database]] contains a useful amount of early modern English printed material until the middle of the nineteenth century.
