Scholar's Resources

Three guides for serious readers, alongside the library's research tools.

Open-Access Bibliography

Books, articles, editions, and translations that are actually open access — from the research guides and the comparison essays' bibliographies — searchable by ancient author and subject. Nothing paywalled is listed as open access.

Digital Manuscript Collections

Where to see the manuscripts behind the texts: Sinaiticus, the Vatican, e-codices, Gallica, the British Library, the Walters, Sinai, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and more. Links out to the collections; no images copied.

Guide to Reliable Editions

Per author: the standard critical editions (GCS, Sources Chrétiennes, CSEL, CCSL, Oxford Classical Texts, Loeb) and which text and translation Ad Fontes itself uses — with partial and older translations honestly noted.
