Resources for Medieval European History

There are many good sources of information regarding the social history of medieval Europe. Perhaps the best starting point is Paul Halsall's Medieval Sourcebook, a masterful collection of primary sources which will be of interest to students and to teachers engaged in teaching medieval history. ORB: The Online Reference Book for Medieval Studies, actually functions as an online textbook in medieval history. To my mind, such an endeavor speaks volumes about what the Internet ought to become. ORB is a large site and includes, among many other things, a Reference Shelf, Encyclopedia, and Resources for Teaching.

NetSERF: The Internet Connection for Medieval Studies is a fairly good selection of links to medieval history (lots of advertisements, however). The Labyrinth: Resources for Medieval Studies at Georgetown is a searchable database of resources. See also the WWW-Virtual Library for Medieval Europe for an excellent collection of links.
