Biblica now has an edition of The Books of the Bible set in the NIV, though it’s just the New Testament (at least I can’t find an entire Bible on their website). The new edition is set in a serif typeface rather than the odd, hybrid typeface used for the TNIV editions I blogged about some time ago. I’m assuming that this is the NIV2011, but I’m not certain.
