In its current digital form, Lexicon Philosophicum was established by the Institute for the European Intellectual Lexicon and History of ideas (ILIESI) of the Italian National Research Council (CNR) as one of the results of the project AGORA. Scholarly Open Access Research in European Philosophy".
Another result of the Project Agora is the portal Daphnet: Digital Archive of Philosophical Texts on the Net.
Daphnet: Digital Archive of Philosophical Texts on the Net
Daphnet, the ILIESI’s Digital Archives of PHilosophical Texts on the NET, is a portal that provides access to digital platforms dedicated to relevant authors and texts belonging to the history of scientific and philosophical thought. The platforms are characterized by some common aspects: They primarily aim at giving access to primary sources, which in a number of cases are complemented by secondary sources and critical instruments; they can include both facsimiles and transcriptions of manuscripts and printed texts; they are based on open-source programmes and standard encoding (i.e. html, XLM,...); the text of the platforms can be semantically enriched. Moreover, the platforms are interoperable, open to the collaboration of the scholars, and they are certified by a board of reviewers. Principal editor, Antonio Lamarra.
Daphnet platforms:
A selection of primary sources that are relevant to the understanding of scientific and philosophical thought of Ancient Age. It contains the collection of Presocratic thinkers edited by H. Diels and W. Kranz, the collection of testimonies about Socrates and Socratics (Socratis et Socraticorum Reliquiae) edited by G. Giannantoni, the Laertius's Lives of Philosophers, the complete works of Sextus Empiricus. Edited by Emidio Spinelli.

The Daphnet Digital Library is a platform of secundary sources that offers a selection of critical contributions focusing on the texts contained in the Daphnet portal.
