This publication of the Association of Research Libraries currently includes entries for almost 1700 electronic journals and newsletters, with annotations, arranged alphabetically with no subject index.

The CIC electronic journals collection

 

"[This is the] Committee on Institutional Cooperation's (CIC) Electronic Journals Collection (EJC), a prototype electronic journal management system coordinated by the librarians of the CIC member universities [the Big Ten universities, Penn State, and the University of Chicago], and the staffs of CICNet, Inc. and the CIC. Ultimately, this collection aims to be an authoritative source of electronic research and academic serial publications -- incorporating all freely distributed scholarly electronic journals available online."

Offline:religious studies news

"The goal of Offline is to provide readers with information related to computers and their use that will help them in the classroom, study, or parish; that will inspire new ideas and avenues of investigation; or that will pique their interest." The website, Finding God in Cyberspace, calls this site "the best resource for keeping informed about new digital resources in religious studies."
