==Internet Medieval Sourcebook==
The '''Internet Medieval Sourcebook''' or '''IMS''' is a web site with Medieval source documents, maps, secondary sources, bibliographies, images and music.  It is located at the [[Fordham University]] Center for Medieval Studies.

A large number of the documents on IMS are older copyright-expired translations from the 19th and early 20th century.<ref>{{cite book |last=Cameron |first=Sonja |page=[https://archive.org/details/usingcomputersin0000came/page/54/mode/2up?q=%22Internet+History+Sourcebooks%22 54] |title=Using Computers in History |publisher=Palgrave Macmillan |year=2005 }}</ref>  However, IMS also has a section of "recently translated texts" which have been translated just for IMS. In fact, IMS claims it "contains more newly-translated texts than any available published collection of medieval sources."<ref>{{cite web |last=Halsall |first=Paul |title=New Translations |work=Internet Medieval Sourcebook |date= |access-date=2024-04-17 |url=https://origin.web.fordham.edu/Halsall//newtrans.asp}}</ref>
