The Checklist is usually updated about once a fortnight and the latest items are highlighted in red, so do take a regular look.
 
Thanks to a team of international volunteers, our TTHA Checklist is the most up to date and comprehensive bibliographic resource for Hardy academics and enthusiasts.  We would like to extend our coverage still further; so if you feel you could help us by checking one or two resources your assistance would be welcome.  You will find a list of resources we would like to be including on the checklist pages at http://www.yale.edu/hardysoc/mrr/bb/Help.htm but you are welcome to contact me off-list if you would like to know more or have suggestions for inclusion.
 
The Checklist is available to TTHA members and can be accessed via the TTHA's Members' Research Resources
