Connected Histories: Sources for Building British History, 1500-1900

" Connected Histories will create a federated search facility for a wide range of distributed electronic resources relating to early modern and nineteenth-century British History..................Using metadata and other available background information, the project will create a search facility that can adapt to each resource to allow searching across a range of chosen sources for names, places and dates as well as keywords and dates.  Background information about search results and a facility to save and export search results for further analysis will also be provided.  An online collaborative workspace will allow users to document connections between resources."
