The Early English
Books microfilm collection consists of over 3,400 reels of
microfilm containing
roughly 95,000 documents printed in England or North America
between 1475 and 1700. These documents include literature,
essays, drama, religious texts, ballads and carols, political
tracts,
pamphlets, medical writings, the earliest editions of The
Canterbury Tales and the Morte d’Arthur,
and on and on. The originals of these documents reside in
libraries and museums all over the world,
and in many cases, only one copy exists.
How it Works
The
documents contained on the microfilms have been cataloged and
can be discovered through
the WSU Libraries Online Catalog. For a handout on locating EEB
documents using the Online
Catalog, click here.
The microfilm is located in green cabinets on the East Wall
of the Reserve Room,
near the Current Periodicals.
