Every once in a while I rediscover this site, and it reminds me that I don't do enough reading outside my usual information industry publications. For those of you who do not know Arts & Letters Daily, it's one-stop shopping for a variety of newspaper and magazine articles and columns, book reviews, blogs, and music. Readers are drawn in by brief synopses that make nearly every article seem provocative, or, at the very least, worthy of a click forward and a click back. I link to A&L from The Chronicle of Higher Education, which maintains the site and updates it six days a week with content collected from sources like The New York Review of Books and the National Review. It's literature, culture, philosophy, history...and even gossip. Subscribe to the RSS feed for a list of what's new each day (except Sunday). The archives are not searchable, but you can browse the content that's been removed from the main site, back to 1998.
