• Corvey Women Writers on the Web (Sheffield-Hallam) -- The goal is "to make fully searchable, peer-reviewed research available to all interested academics, scholars and researchers. ... Focuses on the 1,065 English belles-lettres titles -- around 3,000 volumes -- by women authors," 1796-1834. Now just bibliographical information, no full-text. Still, very extensive, very scholarly.
