How This Catalog Is Kept
This catalog is kept by the site's editors. Links are re-checked quarterly, access statements re-verified every six months, and the whole catalog reviewed once a year. Entries are never deleted: a work replaced by a better one is marked superseded and stays readable, so a citation to this catalog never rots.
