This comprehensive electronic collection gives researchers immediate, Web-based access to 1,279 works by 274 writers from the Reformation and post-Reformation eras. These works include the theological writings of more than 300 Protestant authors, as well as a wide range of confessional documents, biblical commentaries, polemical treatises, and Bible translations. From the followers of Luther and Calvin to the leading figures of the Anabaptist movement, the writers represented in the Digital Library of Classic Protestant Texts can now be studied and compared in ways that will open new avenues of research for the next generation of scholars.

When complete, this collection will give scholars access to over 1500 works, all primary source material from the 16th and 17th centuries. Into one extensive, fully searchable collection we have gathered all the key catechisms, scholarly treatises, papal documents, devotional works, and theological volumes that sparked and sustained the reform from within the Catholic Church in the heady years before, during, and after the landmark decrees of the Council of Trent. The collection currently includes 845 titles by 277 authors.

This site, managed by the American Educational Research Association Special Interest Group for Communication of Research  includes only links to electronic journals that are scholarly, peer-reviewed, full text and accessible without cost. The organization excludes professional magazines that are largely not refereed, and commercial journals that may only allow access to a very limited number of articles as an enticement to buy. By restricting inclusion in this way on the list that follows, the AERA SIG hopes to promote free access world wide to scholarship in education.

AGRICOLA (AGRICultural OnLine Access) is a bibliographic database  created by the National Agricultural Library (NAL) and its cooperators.

The records describe publications and resources encompassing all aspects of agriculture and allied disciplines, including animal and veterinary sciences, entomology, plant sciences, forestry, aquaculture and fisheries, farming and farming systems, agricultural economics, extension and education, food and human nutrition, and earth and environmental sciences.

AGRICOLA includes the NAL Catalog, containing citations to books, audiovisual materials, serial publications, and other materials in the NAL collection and NAL's Article Citation Database, containing citations, many with abstracts, to journal articles, book chapters, reports, and reprints, selected primarily from the materials found in the NAL Catalog.
