Closure of OJBS: Online Journal of Baha'i Studies.
As a result of a series of communications between various parties and as a result of advice that the original premises underlying the project which led to this website were not sustainable meant that those who were "... involved should not proceed with this project, since the conditions specified in our letter dated 31 January 2008 cannot now be met ...", (The Universal House of Justice 24 April 2008) this website has now been closed down as there is no prospect of further development.
Prospective authors and readers are directed to the following official print journals requiring subscriptions:
Journal of Baha'i Studies

The archives of the journal are still available at the following URL:
