What Stig Fr?yshov said about The Canterbury Dictionary of Hymnology:
I find it very problematic that the Dictionary is under paywall. There is no question, it is a wonderful dictionary, and I am myself a contributor. But my university does not subscribe to it, so I hav

Thank you for order and the feedback. The Canterbury Dictionary of Hymnology is an enormous undertaking with significant cots associated with it. It is updated regularly with new content and updates. You will find that a subscription cost for libraries is very reasonable especially compared to some journal pricing we see. We have a wide range of institutional subscription methods of payment and access to support staff and students.. Pls do ask your library to consider a subscription or to get in touch with us if they have any questions - many thanks.

Thank you for the response. I understand that the costs are signifiant. However, when I discussed the question of subscription/paywall with the Dictionary earlier, the argument was that the contributors had to be paid. Well, I can speak for myself. I would much have preferred to contribute without salary from the Dictionary if only the Dictionary was Open Access. In any case, my repeated monthly subscriptions now and then will in the end equal the payment I received for my entires. But I have now made a new request to our University Library (Oslo) about subscription (my request some years ago did not have any effect), and let us hope that they will go for it. In any case, keep up the excellent work of the Dictionary!

The writing is concise, incisive, relevant, and hugely helpful. It provides a glimpse into the hearts and minds of the hymnodist and the composer.

Having a detailed, extensive, carefully researched hymn history resource has been a game-changer for the ghost-writing I'm doing for a family devotional book.
