    Lewis Carroll Online (8/10/2004)

    The Library of Congress has put Lewis Carroll's scrapbook online. Created between 1855 and 1872, during which the author wrote his famed Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, they include 130 scrapbook items that were previously accessible only to scholars. See http://memory.loc.gov/intldl/carrollhtml/lchome.html.

    X-Patents Unearthed (8/10/2004)

    Fourteen lost patents were recently discovered at Dartmouth Library. Known at the X-patents, only 2,800 have been recovered since all 10,000 were destroyed in a 1836 fire while - ironically - a new fireproof building was being constructed to house them.

    Radical Reference (8/02/2004)

    In support of the demonstrations surrounding the Republican National Convention in New York City August 29 - September 2, library workers are launching a project to offer blog, chat, street, and news reference to respond to questions from demonstrators. Visit www.radicalreference.info for more information.
