I would like to announce that the Federal Theatre Project finding aid is available on the Library of Congress WWW site. It can be accessed from the EAD page located in the Standards section (http://lcweb.loc.gov/ead/) as well as the American Memory Background Papers and Technical Information portion of the LC homepage (http://lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/ead/eadhome.html). This is our largest implementation of the EAD beta release to date, and it was the first finding aid where we made use of WordPerfect and CodeWright macros to tag large portions at a time. The container list is in a non-tabular display format that we thinks presents the information in a consistent, easily read fashion. The list below is to not only recognize the people involved in the creation of the Federal Theatre Project, but also to show the level of effort required to complete the coding of such a large document in something of an R&D mode. Margaret Collins (recently hired by the National Library of Canada Music Division) and Sue Manus (NDLP/Music Division) did initial cleanup of the text of the finding aid found on old disks by Karen Stuart (LC/MSS division). Beth Davis-Brown (NDLP) and Sue did the tagging using SoftQuad's Author/Editor software and WordPerfect macros. Martha Anderson (NDLP) assisted Beth and Sue by creating CodeWright routines for autotagging. Martha also helped with stylesheet and navigator issues. Mary Lacy (MSS) helped Sue with finishing touches on the finding aid and stylesheet. Glenn Ricci (NDLP) mounted the finding aid on the server for WWW presentation. Morgan Cundiff (NDLP), Vicky Wulff (Music Division), and Walter Zvonchenko (Music Division) assisted with managerial and administrative matters along the way. Thanks to everyone above that worked on the project. We welcome your comments on our work!!!! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Beth Davis-Brown Library of Congress National Digital Library Program [log in to unmask] 202-707-3301
