Eric Berger clued me in to the fact that Britain’s Royal Society has made the complete archive of its scientific journals available online.  This is a treasure trove of scientific information;  over 300 years of research is available.  We’re talking original papers by Newton, Darwin, Bohr, Faraday, Fermi, and even Leibnitz (who had a tiff with Newton about Calculus).

Quite serependitiously, I am currently reading The Baroque Cycle by Neal Stephenson.  It is set during the founding of the Royal Society and talks quite a bit about it.

Kudos to the Royal Society
