Two exciting new research databases have become available on line this past week of interest to Egyptologists.
The first is the Current Research in Egyptology, which includes a database of titles, authors and abstracts of all the papers which have been presented at the annual graduate research conference, now in its ninth year.
The second (save the best for last) is the Bulletin of the American Society of Papyrologists, which has published articles on papyrus and other manuscripts since 1963. Their entire backlog, with the exception of the last two issues, are now available in their entirety for free downloading on line. This gold Open Access initiative is wonderful news and (I hope I hope) a harbinger of things to come.
