The Labyrinth: Resources for Medieval Studies Unrestricted Resource

The Labyrinth provides free, organized access to electronic resources in medieval studies through a World Wide Web server at Georgetown University.  The Labyrinth's easy-to-use menus and links provide connections to databases, services, texts, and images on other servers around the world.  Each user will be able to find an Ariadne's thread through the maze of information on the Web.

This project not only provides an organizational structure for electronic resources in medieval studies, but also serves as a model for similar, collaborative projects in other fields of study.  The Labyrinth project is open-ended and is designed to grow and change with new developments in technology and in medieval studies.
