Bryn Mawr Classical Review (ISSN: 1055-7660) purports to be the second oldest online scholarly journal in the humanities. The first reviews shipped in November 1990. In 1993, we were joined by the Bryn Mawr Medieval Review (since 1997: The Medieval Review), conceived by Eugene Vance of the University of Washington and now edited by Deborah Deliyannis and Diane Reilly of Indiana University (where it is based), Michael Kulikowski of the University of Tennessee, and Roisin Cossar of the University of Manitoba. Subscribers may elect to receive both reviews together by choosing to subscribe to Bryn Mawr Reviews (BMR-L) .

The editors are grateful to numerous colleagues and institutions over the years of our work. Chiefly we owe a debt to our editorial board and to our myriad contributors, whose work is the center of what we do. Particular thanks to former editors: Ellen Bauerle, Joseph Farrell, Sander Goldberg, Brad Inwood, Jeffrey Rusten, David Sansone, David Sider, William Slater, and John Yardley.

We began with a simple list-serving program at Bryn Mawr College and have used BMC computing facilities gratefully throughout our history. Ann Dixon was assistant director of computing at BMC in 1990 and was indispensable in getting us up and running.

John Price-Wilkin, now of the University of Michigan but formerly of the University of Virginia, has been indispensable at different points in our history, first for providing the gopher site and technical support when we began serious archiving in 1992, and later for advice and technical support on our transition to the web presentation seen here. We are also grateful to Kendon Stubbs of the University of Virginia Library for his support and assistance over many years. From 1994-1999, BMCR enjoyed the support of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation as part of a larger Mellon project to study the growth and functioning of electronic journals: Richard Ekman and Richard Quandt at Mellon have been colleagues and friends through this period. The web presentation enjoys the privileges of the University of Pennsylvania's Center for the Computer Analysis of Texts and could not have been possible without the assistance of Penn's Jay Treat, Ken MacFarlane, and Ira Winston.  The present WWW instantiation emerged from a partnership with "The Stoa" (http://www.stoa.org), and in particular Anne Mahoney and Ross Scaife.  All web-sites are "under construction" in perpetuity and this is no exception. Suggestions, comments, and criticism are eagerly sought and welcomed.
