Dov,

Congratulations! Your http://www.sefaria.org/ is an awesome undertaking and
I hope it will succeed. 

As a publisher of www.judaicdigitallibrary.org most of our texts naturally
don't belong to us, but some do, including great Russian translation of
entire Mishna and Tosefta. We'd be happy to contribute it for your use. 

Alex

Hello, fellow librarians!

 

I just found out about the Bible Accordance database, which is pretty
impressive and would be useful for our Tanach classes.  But I wanted a
database that would perform these tremendous concordance feats as well as
contain text and analysis tools for other sefarim in addition to the Tanach.
My colleague mentioned the Responsa Project, run by Bar Ilan University,
which looks like a dream.  The problem is, it doesn't contain texts with
English translations.  Is there anything similar to the Responsa Project
that also has English translations of everything?   What amazing Judaic
databases other than Jewish Studies Source and EJ Online are day school
teachers using?  

 

Many thanks from a new librarian,
