[Sca-librarians] New online books

[Greg Lindahl]

Here's a list of the pre-1650-relevant online books recently added to
the "Online Books Page", one of several online listings of books that
are monitored on the SCA Books page. This listing is now up to about
1,300 books. The listing is organized by subject.

which aren't in the Online Books Page list. There are about 400.
