medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Ah, but the AASS is available for free on-line: http://www.patristique.org/Acta-sanctorum

Much freedom from carting around big volumes with crumbling pages, although I confess to missing the scent of old dust and moldering binding. Nothing else says *real* library to me ...
