BBIH for Teachers and Students

How is BBIH useful for teachers and students?

The Bibliography of British and Irish History (BBIH) is a powerful resource for getting to grips with a new area of historical research. BBIH provides detailed information on more than 620,000 books, collections, journal articles and book chapters published during the 20th century and up to to the current year.

The Bibliography is therefore a quick and easy way to get a picture of what's been written on a particular topic, theme, person or place. This is of great value when studying a new subject or preparing an undergraduate or graduate thesis, especially when it comes to identifying and assessing the existing literature

BBIH covers the history of Britain and Ireland, from the Roman occupation to the present day; this means not just the British Isles, but also the British empire, Commonwealth and global histories.

What's special about BBIH?

The Bibliography of British and Irish History is a curated research compiled by specialist bibliographers and historians. This means it's much more accurate and comprehensive than other online resources and much more reliable than searching the open web for secondary content.
