Libguides (and Resources) for Modern Greek Studies -- information requested - CoHSL-list

10 Jul 2016

Dear Members of Co-HSL,

Would you please -- especially if you are responsible for the Modern Greek
Studies or Hellenic Studies collection(s) in a large library (or a program
of teaching in these fields at a University) -- respond to me with
information (and links) on the online availability of a related Libguide
(or other similar portal to useful resources) on your Library's (or your
Modern Greek Studies program's) site?

I'm aware of the handy "Research Collections" webpage (under
"Resources")
of the MGSA (http://www.mgsa.org/Resources/libraries.html), but would
appreciate receiving an update from you, even if you or your institution
had originally submitted information for posting on that page (not all
those links remain active today).

I think it would be helpful for us to gather such information in one place,
and suggest that we compile a shared list -- the sooner the better! -- of
print versions and URLs where such Libguides for Modern Greek (or Hellenic)
Studies are located, as a basic introduction to resources available in the
discipline.  A target audience: undergraduates, graduate students, and
other interested readers seeking a guided entry to the best library (and
study) resources in Modern Greek Studies.

I suppose that I am primarily thinking of Libguides (and related guides to
resources) that are located at libraries and educational programs in
English-speaking countries and institutions, but it seems good to keep a
broader perspective as well on the world beyond.

I hope to hear from you and will gladly share the information received with
all those who may be interested. A student of mine is available to make a
compilation, and would do it promptly, as a project during a current
workshop. Please respond soon!
