Dear Colleague,
Exploring the long, complex, and fascinating history of stewardship of the
cultural record is the mission of Libraries & the Cultural
Record. Formerly Libraries & Culture, the first issue of the journal with
its new focus, Volume 41, number 3 (Summer 2006), is being mailed to
subscribers this month.
Established 40 years ago to recount the history of libraries, Libraries &
the Cultural Record opens its pages to studies investigating the history of:
* collections of knowledge;
* the libraries, archives, and museums that house the collections;
* the people who create and maintain the collections; and
* the preservation and conservation work that has ensured both
longevity of and continuing access to the collections.
Libraries & the Cultural Record welcomes submissions and new
subscribers. I invite your contributions and comments. Please visit our
website at <http://www.ischool.utexas.edu/~lcr>www.ischool.utexas.edu/~lcr
for more information or email me at
