Bibliographic Information Base in Patristics
"The Bibliographic Information Base in Patristics is a documentary system highly specialized in patristics. Even if patristic literature remains its major preoccupation, the BIBP touches on all disciplines studying patristic Christianity. This Web site allows to use the bibliographical services of the BIBP. Now, some 32 400 records, from about 325 journals, can be searched. Presently, the database can be searched only in French. By way of French, all records can be searched."

Development of the Canon of the New Testament
"This survey covers a small part of the huge body of New Testament studies --- how the Church selected certain writings as authoritative and separated them from a larger body of early Christian literature. In view of the central importance that the New Testament has within Christianity, it is amazing that there is an absence of detailed accounts of such a significant process. My goal is to collect and organize the information that is available, and make it easily accessible in the form of hypertext. I especially hope this file will be useful to persons who cherish the New Testament, but are unfamiliar with the history of its development." Maintained by Glenn Davis.
