This resource is like a traditional print encyclopedia with its emphasis on authoritative content based on sound scholarship; the edited entries are written by scholars and experts from across the globe. But the online format makes it a modern reference tool offering video, audio, graphics, and hyperlinks. The site was launched with more than 500 articles, 2,000 images and four hours of video clips. New content will be added on a weekly basis--more than 5,000 potential articles have been identified and that list continues to grow.
