For 2024 we have several databases newly available. Below you can find information about Oxford Music Online, Thesaurus Linguae Latinae, Online Egyptological Bibliography (OEB), Thesaurus Linguae Graecae and Oxford Bibliographies in Chinese Studies.
Oxford Music Online
Thanks to the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Education subscription, this database is available now as a trial and from January 2024 as a regular subscription. Oxford Music Online is a gateway offering users the ability to search multiple music reference resources in one location. With Grove® Music Online as its cornerstone, Oxford Music Online also provides search of The Oxford Companion to Music (revised 2011), which offers more than 8,000 articles on composers, performers, conductors, instruments and notation, forms and genres, and individual works; and the Oxford Dictionary of Music 2nd edition (revised 2006), which supplements Grove’s more extensive articles with content geared toward undergraduates and general users.

The Thesaurus Linguae Latinae (TLL) Online is the largest and most detailed Latin dictionary in the world. With extensive and detailed entries covering the classical period up to about 600 A.D., it is also the first of its kind on the market. This encyclopedic database, based on the renowned print dictionary of the same name, is designed to serve as an ideal tool for both research and teaching preparation at the primary and university school levels.
