The Old Spalding Library


From mid-1999 until March, 2006, the original "Spalding Studies Library" was featured at the "Spalding Studies Home Page" web-site, at this URL:
http://home1.gte.net/dbroadhu/RESTOR/SSHP7.htm

Prior to the closing of the original "Spalding Studies Home Page" in March of 2006, most of the texts previously posted at the old on-line library were relocated here:
New Spalding Studies Library.

The current Index Page for the original "Spalding Studies Library" is preserved for reference purposes, even though all of the contents have been moved to new locations, or have been merged with the contents of other web-pages. The links provided below have been changed to reflect this relocation of materials.
