The John Milton Reading Room

The John Milton Reading Room (www.dartmouth.edu/~milton/reading_room/contents) is an online edition of all the poetry and selected prose of John Milton, with annotations linked to thousands of other web resources (encyclopedias, dictionaries, Bibles and concordances, other historical, scientific, and literary web resources) in order to enable anyone to study Milton's poetry and prose with the support of a virtual library online. I would like to improve this resource in the following ways: 1. Supply introductions for ten sonnets currently lacking them. 2. Supply general introductions for two sets of Latin poems which currently lack introductions. 3. Migrate the entire MRR to a newly designed format with searching provided by Google.
