Formal and informal bibliographies
H-Netters ask each other: can you recommend books on…?Formal compilations may be submittedShort responses to the list sit in the logsOr they are brought together as “threads”There is no H-Net-wide bibliography projectThere is no H-Soz-u-Kult or Clio-online bibliography project

For the future: some ideas
Continued archiving, linking of reviewsMore collaboration with publishers to collect TOCs Collect the H-Net bibliographies that are already online H-Net searching of “*bib*” directoriesUse of wikis to update bibliographies
