Building a Reformed Theological Library Online
Wes White has done a great service of gathering links to many theological works with which every Reformed minister should be familiar. Wes explains the nature of the list below:
“Most of these works are from the continent, with a few exceptions. I have focused on these works because others have done a good job cataloguing and making available Puritan literature on the web. All works are in English unless otherwise noted. Some of the works are on Gallica, the online library of the French national library. For the Gallica documents, select “télécharger,” then press “OK” on the next page, and then right click on “en cliquant ici.” Save the document.”
