What's new at ETANA

Thanks to Chuck Jones for the latest news:

The Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York University (http://www.nyu.edu/ISAW) is the newest member of the ETANA collective (http://www.etana.org)

Both ISAW and ETANA now have presences in facebook:
ISAW: http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=10685696817
ETANA: http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=22877529027

As of 1 July 2008 there are 355 digitized books and one developing resource (eTACT) in ETANA Core Texts. I present at this link all of those titles in a single list organized alphabetically by author's name.
