Today's reference site is the Perseus Hopper, an ancient world collection out of Tufts University. Searchable collections of artifacts and texts on the "history, literature and culture of the Greco-Roman world" are now accompanied by Renaissance, Germanic, Arabic and 19th century American materials (among others), as the Perseus Hopper also serves as an ongoing experiment in digitization for the Tufts library.
A complete digitized set of the works of Shakespeare is hosted on the site, as well as some digitized Civil War material. Perseus Hopper is an interesting amalgam of historical materials made available on one site.
