What are the advantages of the Perseus text system?
We implemented the current version of the text system in response to user comments and suggestions. First, users had trouble finding texts and works within Perseus. The new Perseus table of contents page shows you all of the contents of Perseus at once. You may customize this listing for specific collections and/or languages. This is done automatically now, and not on a static page. This means that the contents are always up-to-date. The basis of this system is a new and improved means of easily adding texts to the Perseus digital library, following the example of Perseus images. Second, users requested more display options, such as a “cookie” for preserving display options and the choice of the default text language. Third, navigation within a text was not intuitive. We now have a go to navigation box, a navigation bar, and arrows within every text. This helps you find a specific passage more quickly and see your relative location within a text. Fourth, we improved the searching tools
