Checklist of Electronic Resources (Version 3)

[Fred Shapiro]

This is Version 3 of my checklist of electronic resources valuable for
English-language historical-lexicographical research, reflecting some slight
changes from the recently distributed draft. Please note that I am not
attempting to list every minor newspaper archive or other resources of very
slight value, just significantly valuable resources that historical
lexicographers need to be aware of.
