Mille Noctes is a project whose goal is to create an easily searchable database of beginner-to-intermediate Latin readings for Latin learners. It has expanded to include databases for CI-oriented activities, materials, and techniques as well.

Using Mille Noctes
A how-to guide will eventually go here. For now, click around and play with the sorting, searching, & filters options. You should be able to essentially seek out the type of story you're looking for by using those features.
How you can help
Click here to read about what you can do to help! This project is absolutely impossible without your story submissions and your help organizing, formatting, tagging, and inputting those stories into our database! Most of our volunteer needs can be filled by people with limited Latin knowledge; you do not need to have any real Latin composition proficiency to help out with most of it. For more detailed instructions on each volunteer task, click here.
You can also just submit stories. We're looking particularly for vocab-sheltered, grammar unsheltered texts that are accessible to students in the first or second year of a CI-oriented Latin program. That said, we'll take whatever you've got so long as it's not an adaptation of a copyrighted textbook passage and does not contain copyrighted characters from textbook series.

The Mille Noctes Team
Without these people, Mille Noctes would be a sad, neglected blog with a few of my own stories. It has grown beyond what I even hoped for in the small period of time since I got my first few volunteers. If you use and enjoy MN, these are the people you should be grateful to!
Additionally, there are many teachers who have submitted stories to MN for us to share with the world. I commend them for their fearlessness and generosity.
