METS needs your help, today. Since 1989, we have expanded the boundaries of our understanding of medieval literary traditions and cultures through our ever-growing collection of open access and affordable texts. Our new website and digital reader, launched in November 2024, have enhanced our long-standing goals to support groundbreaking scholarship, ensure access, and enable teaching and learning.

We have been able to do this through the generous support of the National Endowment for the Humanities, whose grants were our source of funding for staff salaries. With the recent and sudden termination of almost all NEH grants, our work is in jeopardy. Our resources are used almost 750,000 times a year: if every person who uses our site donated just $10, we would be well on our way to being fully self-supported. 

Please donate today to the Russell Peck Memorial Fund, created to support the Middle English Text Series upon the passing of Professor Russell A. Peck. Every dollar you give will go directly toward supporting our staff, and will help ensure the ongoing viability of the Series. Russell Peck was the founder of METS, and an inimitable figure who had a profound effect on medieval studies across the world, as well as in the lives of his students. Our goal is continue his vision; your support will help us do so.
