There are a number of exciting new development to discuss at Perseus! To begin with, a long planned move of the Scaife Viewer to the Tufts IT infrastructure has finally occurred.
Many of our long term Perseus Digital Library 4.0 (P4) users have requested that the morphology and dictionary tools available in P4 also be implemented in the Scaife Viewer.
Another common request has been the addition of more reference works found in P4 such as commentaries on individual authors (e.g. Cicero, Sophocles, Homer), which form an integral part of the P4 reading environment. We are happy to announce that the first steps towards both of these requested features have been taken and are now available for use on the Scaife Viewer.
