- Dictionary of Medieval Latin from British Sources (DMLBS)The most comprehensive dictionary of Medieval Latin to have been produced and the first ever to focus on British Medieval Latin, DMLBS covers a particularly long period stretching from Gildas (fl. 540) to William Camden (1600). It is based on the close reading of thousands of Medieval Latin texts, both literary and documentary.
- Database of Latin Dictionaries (DLD)The DLD dictionary project presents new techniques of research for consulting dictionaries and various lexica, both modern and ancient. The project covers both single-language dictionaries and multilingual ones, and links the dictionaries to databases of texts and tools for analyzing them.
