eText
The Electronic Text Center (1992-2007), known to many as “Etext,” served the University community’s teaching and research needs in the areas of humanities text encoding for over fifteen years.

In the course of migrating thousands of texts from Etext to VIRGO , it was determined that certain resources were not eligible for inclusion.
