January 1[edit]

Brill books[edit]

I understand this publisher has donated some e-book viewing rights to Wikipedia. Does anyone know who has them? Got a few questions I'd love if they could look up... Blythwood (talk) 20:26, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know who has them, but if you make a request at WP:REX, it's likely that someone will be able to supply you with what you want. Deor (talk) 00:09, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
See Brill Publishers, Knowledge Unlatched, and this press release from their website. The e-books are available if one applies successfully at WP:Brill. The application process seems rather complicated, I must admit. Tevildo (talk) 01:43, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The WP:Brill page has a list of subscribers with details of their topic interests.--Shantavira|feed me 09:55, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
