[DCRM-L] Latin Place Names

[Laurence S. Creider]

The 1972 edition of Orbis Latinus is online at:
https://www.bayerische-landesbibliothek-online.de/orbis-latinus

Not as easy to use as the 1909 ed., but somewhat more up to date.  The
advantage of the Latin Place Names list for me is that it is relatively
short and covers most of the major printing places.  That is why all 3 of
the sites are on the BSC Web Directory page
(http://lib.nmsu.edu/rarecat/#PN).  Speaking of which, would someone send
me the new URL so that I can fix the currently broken link to LPN?

Thank you,
Larry
