Adding logos and buttonsLibrarians or site administrators who wish to provide a convenient short cut into the Oxford DNB are invited to use the buttons or Quick Search boxes, or the "where I live" box, below. You can copy the HTML and add it to your own web page, giving readers of that page instant access to the Oxford DNB. For example, a librarian might add the search box to a page of describing reference databases. Note that these buttons and search boxes can only be used by a reader who has a subscription. It should therefore only be used in institutional or similar environments. For these buttons
