Josh Sosin has just announced several significant upgrades to the papyrological information resources provided at papyri.info, a collaborative project in which ISAW is a major partner. These upgrades include the addition of new individuals to the editorial boards that review site content; the improvement of some search, display and editing functions; and the addition of new documents (some 2,000 in the last year). More information is available via Josh's blog post at digitalpapyrology.blogspot.com.

The screen capture (click image to enlarge) shows part of the papyri.info display for a 4th century CE loan contract from Karanis in Egypt. This document is now held in Bobst Library at NYU. You can learn more about it by viewing the full papyri.info display for P.NYU 2 23).
