    As of July 2012, book records from ACLS Humanities are loaded in the Knowledgebase. These records are being used to normalize the database ACLS Humanities E-Book.

    Type: Online

    At this time, we can provide only limited normalization for the Adam Matthew titles without ISBNs. For now, we can normalize only titles that are both unique and have no editions.
