Discover How to Master L’Année Philologique: Join the Upcoming Webinar

BREPOLiS Newsletter : Explore the Latest Enhancements

Over the past year, we have been implementing major enhancements across our bibliographic and full-text databases—improvements designed to make the use of our databases more accessible, intuitive, and efficient.
In 2026, you will experience the full impact of these developments: redesigned interfaces and improved data models are now available for all bibliographies and will become available for all full-text databases. The citation plugin will establish itself as an essential benefit for users of our bibliographies, while the number of citations will increase significantly in the course of 2026. These upgrades, combined with further updates planned for selected Latin databases this year, ensure that our platform sets the standard for innovation and user experience.

Stay tuned—this newsletter will provide detailed insights into what’s new and how you can make the most of these enhancements. Download the Newsletter here.
