[Nfb-history] JTBL Digital Files Availability

[Peter Donahue]

Hello everyone,

    I'd be curious to know if Ed or anyone knows when the digital files to 
made available via the Web from the Jacobus TenBroek Library will go online. 
At last report this was supposed to happen at the end of last year. It is 
now 2010 and they are still not available online. I did however see the 
listing of collections of the TenBroek Papers on the JTBL Page. Will these 
too eventually become available via the Internet. Currently one can only 
access them by visiting the Jacobus TenBroek Library in person.

    The deadline for submitting name suggestions for the Jacobus TenBroek 
Digital Data Collection was December 15. That date has long since passed yet 
that page is still active. I'd like to know if that deadline has been 
extended? If not has a name been selected? Ed can you bring us up-to-date on 
these goings-on? Those who are NFB History Buffs will appreciate knowing the 
latest on this exciting new resource.

 "Will you come and awake our lost land from its slumber
      And her fetters we'll break, links that long are encumbered.
      And the air will resound with hosannas to greet you
      On the shore will be found gallant Irishmen to greet you."
