Nineteenth Century British Pamphlets

Alternate Titles: 19th Century British Pamphlets

Connect to Resource

This collection, created by RLUK (Research Libraries UK), contains the most significant British pamphlets from the 19th century held in UK research libraries. Pamphlets were an important means of public debate, covering the key political, social, technological, and environmental issues of their day. They have been underutilized within research and teaching because they are generally quite difficult to access, often bound together in large numbers or otherwise hard to find in the few research libraries that hold them. The digitization of more than 26,000 pamphlets from seven UK institutions will provide researchers, students, and teachers with an immensely rich and coherent corpus of primary sources with which to study the socio-political and economic landscape of 19th century Britain.

 Access open only to UBC students, faculty, staff and on-site Library users (other restrictions may apply)
