Summary

Starting January 2024, our Major Reference Works (MRW), that are currently published on referenceworks.brillonline.com, will be integrated with brill.com.  After a short parallel run period, during which the current and the new platform will exist next to each other, we plan to switch off referenceworks.brillonline.com in early Spring 2024.

The new environment will be a major upgrade compared to the current environment. It will make life easier for institutional customers and provide a major enhancement on end user experience.

Institutional customers will find their MRW holdings on ams.brill.com, the same place where they can already find information on their e-books and journals holdings. The Major Reference Works, part of brill.com, will fully comply with the last accessibility standards and will provide institutional customers with certified Counter 5 usage reports. The change will not impact your patrons  or cause any disruption/downtime.

End users of Brill’s Major Reference Works will enjoy better search facilities and will be able to use their current account on brill.com to make use of personalized tools, including saving searches, subscribing to new contents alerts, and annotating content.
