Changes

This database does not consist of newspapers or journals, but is included here due to it's its subscription basis. Introduced in January 2017, it currently consists of one module, "Module 1: Trade, Governance and Empire, 1600-1947", and is available in the British Library reading rooms. This module consists of the most important executive papers of the East India Company and later the India Office, covering the entire period of British rule in India and the expansion of the British Empire over several centuries. Charters, treaties, minutes and correspondence shed light on the foundation, development and demise of the East India Company and, later, the work of the Council of India in overseeing the British Raj. Modules 2 and 3 are expected to be published in 2018 and 2019 respectively.
