Book History Online (BHO), which was in trial use on January-February, has been now acquired. BHO is the international bibliography in the field of book and library history. It provides a comprehensive survey of all scholarly publications written from a historical perspective. Included are monographs, articles and reviews dealing with the history of the printed book, its arts, crafts, techniques and equipment, its economic, social and cultural environment, as well as its production, distribution, preservation and description.

BHO is published in partnership with the University of St Andrews and the Society for the History of Authorship, Reading, and Publishing (SHARP).

The use is restricted to Helsinki University students, faculty, staff and the local users in the National Library and Helsinki University Library.
