Recently published on EOED: OED editions, updates and revisions This newly expanded section of the website explains the successive versions of OED and reviews the re-launched OED Online (December 2010), the biggest change to occur in OED since the Dictionary went online in 2000. Major features of the re-launch include powerful new search tools and wide-ranging bibliographical modifications, along with (most unfortunately) the removal of OED2 as a separately searchable entity online. See discussion of all these plus more in the following new pages:
Examining the OED was heavily dependent on the data available via the old site (in particular the searchable version of OED2), which ceased to be available in March 2011. The loss of this invaluable resource means that comparisons between the old and new versions of OED, and assessment of the current revision of the Dictionary, are now either much more difficult or no longer possible.
