New Library Resource: Women’s Magazine Archive

New Library Resource: Women’s Magazine Archive 

Members of the Trent community now have access the Women’s Magazine Archive, a searchable database from ProQuest of leading women’s magazines from the 19th to the 21st centuries.  Collection titles include:

  •  Chatelaine
  • Good Housekeeping
  • Ladies Home Journal
  • Parents 
  • Redbook

Featuring high-resolution cover-to-cover colour images, these provide a record of trends in advertising and marketing, domestic practices and family life, crafts and culinary arts, parenting and popular psychology, and health and well-being.

The acquisition of this new resource is made possible through the generous endowments of Irene Curtin, the Birks Foundation and Hugh Waddell.   Find the Women’s Magazine Archive in the A-Z Databases.
