ECCO provides online access to every significant English-language and foreign-language title printed in the United Kingdom between 1701 and 1800, along with thousands of important works from the Americas. Content consists of books, pamphlets, broadsides, ephemera, and more.
McMaster has purchased both ECCO and the update, ECCO II, giving us access to over 180,000 titles (200,000 volumes). As of March 2026, McMaster users also have access to ECCO III, 1.7 million never-before-digitized pages including a variety of historical archive in unusual formats and sizes like broadsides, maps, and full-color book covers and spines. Subject coverage includes history, literature, religion, law, fine arts, and science.
