Oxford English Dictionary Online

Oxford Online resources are widely available across English public libraries following a landmark agreement between Oxford University Press (OUP) and the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA).

As part of the MLA's new Reference Online initiative, Torbay Library Services is delighted to be one of the 142 public library authorities in England have that joined together for the first time to share the cost of a 2-year national licence for a range of OUP's online resources.

The popularity of the national offer means that, until 31 March 2008, over 48 million English residents will be able to explore OUP online resources free of charge by joining their local library. Access will be available in libraries, but members can also log on from home at anytime using their library card number.
