SHAKSPER 1993: Q: Electronic Access to the Folger Library
From: Hardy M. Cook (hmcook@boe00.minc.umd.edu) Date: 01/21/93
Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 4, No. 36. Thursday, 21 January 1993. From: Hope Greenberg <hag@moose.uvm.edu> Date: Thursday, 21 Jan 1993 10:13:15 -500 (EST) Subject: 4.0033 Folger Library Awarded $2.5 Million Grant Comment: Re: SHK 4.0033 Folger Library Awarded $2.5 Million Grant The news about Project Access (expanding the offerings at the Folger) is very interesting. Are there any plans to use some of that funding to establish ways to "reach out" electronically in some way? Hope Greenberg, not within commuting distance of DC.. University of Vermont [Editor's Note: The posting mentioned above consists entirely of the Press Release I obtained from the Folger Library last Friday. During my previous visit to the Folger, the week before, I learned that the Library is in the process of being "wired" to give staff members Internet access through Amherst College. Some of the Folger Library's staff, have expressed an interest in joining our electronic discussion group, but I have no knowledge of any plans at the moment for further electronic "outreach." I encourage any SHAKSPERean with additional knowledge to share it with us. In the meantime, I believe that it would be highly appropriate for members of our electronic conference who are so inclined to write to the Director, Dr. Werner Gundersheimer, The Folger Shakespeare Library, 201 East Capitol Street, S.E., Washington, D.C. 20003-1094, expressing your interest in ways that the Folger Library could "reach out" electronically to the academic community. hmc]
