Academic Guide to Jewish History Major Print and Internet Resources. (University of Toronto Library) 
Internet Jewish History Sourcebook This excellent site focuses on providing access to full-text primary historical documents, but also provides links to secondary articles, reviews, discussions, and pictures (2ND) as well as to megasites of web resources (MEGA) and websites focused on specific issues (WEB). The contents are divided into four historical periods: The People of Israel; The Emergence of Judaism; The Jewish Middle Ages; and Jewish Life Since the Enlightenment. Many of the online texts are "public domain historical texts translated more than 75 years ago." Although these texts are often still used "in commercially available sourcebooks, … note that … in some cases … more modern translations", available only in print, may be preferred. The Jewish History page is a subset of texts derived from the three major online History Sourcebooks - Ancient, Medieval and Modern with some additions. The site is maintained and edited by Paul Halsall, Assistant Professor of History at the University of North Florida
