The Bodleian Library has been awarded a grant of $1.14m by The Andrew W Mellon Foundation for a new project to provide better online access to its journals. The EASEL Project, which is to run for four-an-a-half years, aims to optimise the bibliographic records of the Library's 37,000 current serials, as well as of the 74,000 older, non-current titles. This will enable scholars world-wide to use the Bodleian's collection more effectively online. The Bodleian holds the largest collection of printed serials in the library world
