Subject: Scots Language - A. J. Aitken Papers Online

 A. J. Aitken (1921-1998) was a leading authority on the Scots language and one of the chief editors of A Dictionary of the Older Scottish Tongue. A new online collection of papers includes most of his important articles, often with his own revisions and sometimes with additional material originally cut out for reasons of length. Editorial notes bring the topics up to date, and there is a biographical introduction and list of his published works. Some papers have not been published before. 

The papers can be found here http://www.scotslanguage.com/aitken-papers, with one additional paper here: http://carolinemacafee.wix.com/ajaonscotslanguage.
