The UH Manoa Library has begun trials to two databases from ProQuest of historical periodicals. Both trials run through Oct. 29, 2010.

The collection spans the nineteenth century through the dawn of the twentieth century, containing labor, trade, literary, scientific, and photographic periodicals, as well as other historically-significant titles.
