ProQuest, Ebrary Make 253rd Edition Of Annual Register Available As An E-Book

When The Annual Register debuted in 1758, libraries were still scarce around the world and protective of their holdings, which were often chained to desks as a safeguard. During the ensuing 254 years, the chains were broken; libraries evolved even further by pushing content outside their walls, providing patrons with around-the-clock remote access via computers. That "liberation" continues as the 253rd edition of The Annual Register, one of libraries' most trusted references, makes its debut as an e-book via ProQuest business unit Ebrary.
