Its easy to forget about sources you visited once and to which you meant to return. British History Online is one such, a free digital library containing some of the core printed primary and secondary sources for the medieval and modern history of the British Isles.
An initiative of the Institute of Historical Research and the History of Parliament Trust, the site promotes the study of history by publishing often rare resources for their historical value, cross-searchable, in one place and without charge. Registration is asked.
