This guide gives you an overview of recommended resources for History: reference works to orientate on a particular topic and to find references to literature, scholarly literature databases and search engines, and all kinds of resources containing digital or digitized primary sources.
Listed are both resources to which the Library has subscribed, as well as resources that are available via the National Library of the Netherlands (you can recognize those by the symbol), or are freely available online.
Please note the EUR also provides access to a large number of Taylor & Francis/Routledge eBooks in other fields in the Humanities and Social Sciences. The majority of the accessible titles was published in the years 2017-2020 and is available until December 22, 2021. To go to the full collection, please click here.

The University Library supports RefWorks. When you see the RefWorks symbol next to a resource title somewhere in this Guide, you know it is possible to export references from that resource to RefWorks. The Library has created an e-course on how to use RefWorks.
