Scholars are planning to put the Dead Sea Scrolls online (NYTimes registration required) so that anyone can view them. The scrolls are already starting to deteriorate and photographs of them have been taken only once before. It's slated to take one to two yeas. The scrolls were only published in their entirety in 2001 so this is a big deal. Now anyone so inclined will be able to view them.
This field never ceases to generate controversy. Museum exhibits have been abusively slanted towards an increasingly disputed theory, and plagiarism charges have surfaced against Lawrence Schiffman, author of the popular book "Reclaiming the Dead Sea Scrolls." See
