"For more than thirty years I have taught courses dealing with the history of Jewish thought. During this time I have directed students to such multi-volume encyclopedias of Judaism as the Jewish Encyclopedia and the Encyclopaedia Judaica. These vast repositories of material provide a wealth of information about key thinkers in the history of the Jewish faith. Nonetheless, very often students find these works overwhelming as well as difficult to gain access to if they are much in demand i the library. Computers have reduced these difficulties considerably: the Jewish Encyclopedia is now available online and the Encyclopaedia Judaica is available as a CD-ROM."
