Electronic Enlightenment's database of individual letters and correspondents can be searched or browsed as a complete collection. Innovative functionality and linking within the database allows users to research letters and documents, annotations and supporting materials, follow links to online portraits, trace the lives of Enlightenment figures, follow links to other scholarly resources and more.

Highlights of EE's online resource center include:

• Access to more than 53,000 letters from the critical editions from leading scholarly and university presses.
• Letters from 6,000-plus writers, scientists, philosophers, politicians, political thinkers and others, including Addison, Bentham, Catherine the Great, Descartes, Hume, Locke, Muratori, Newton, Pope, Rousseau, Swift, Mrs. Thrale, Voltaire and many others.
• Upwards of 80,000 document sources, along with nearly 230,000 scholarly annotations.
• Original languages, including letters in English, French, German and Italian.
• Expanding network of links to other online resources, from Chambers' Cyclopedia to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Online (for mutual subscribers).
• Twice yearly updates with further critical editions, including previously unpublished correspondence.
• Static URLs at the level of individual letter writers to make it easier to link to EE directly from other resources.
