Bummer just been doing more searching and it looks as if this is only for libraries see link below

But don't give up entirely your local library can get this free trial plus a lot of libraries already have Gale online

Great but its telling me to

Come back beginning Sunday, April 10, to register for access to a great selection of Gale resources below during National Library Week.

Im assuming this may be because its not the 10th yet in what ever part of the world it is based in ? or maybe they dont open till 9.30

It may be in USA I am hoping its for everyone to try not just libraries ect

Just tried and only for libraries and looks like only USA & Canada.......... My apologies for getting hopes up

National Library Week in Canada is in October, so perhaps you will only be able to access the database from those countries which are celebrating NPL this week.

It may be that the libraries are being given the opportunity to sign up, not individuals. http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases ... 03292.html

Although very costly, there are options for smaller libraries to access the Thompson-Gale services through regional, provincial or state orgnaizations or consortia. It is worth checking at your local public library to see if they already have access, or would be willing to take the trial offer.
