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.

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, Mirele Davis Upper School Librarian Charles E.
