The Bibliotheca Universalis website now redirects to The European Library website. As far as I can tell the project has now become The European Library, since the end of the TEL project in 2004 see here (quoted below).

"The European Library originates from the TEL project, which was finished successfully on January 31, 2004. The key aim of TEL project was to investigate the feasibility of establishing a new Pan-European service (named The European Library) which would ultimately give access to the combined resources of the national libraries of Europe. The project was partly funded by the European Commission and it ran for 3 years. During the project it became clear that Gabriel, the current website of the European national libraries, Gabriel (GAteway and BRIdge to Europe's National Libraries) would be integrated into the new European Library website. The Gabriel website was integrated into The European Library in the summer of 2005."
