MIDDLE ENGLISH
Open Access Journals
Curated by Anna-Nadine Pike
This page brings together a range of open-access journals relating to the study of late-medieval literature, and Middle English literature in particular. The site-wide focus of MEMSLib is on scholarly resources which are available to all researchers, regardless of institutional access, and so we are working actively to expand this page. If you know of any open-access medieval studies journals which we should be aware of, please do get in touch with the team.
If you need help finding the articles or journals you need, join our literature research forum.
