Professor Emeritus Billie Jean Isbell with villagers in the Peruvian Andes.

These are just a few of the digitization projects that library staff and faculty members have collaborated on over the past two years. For more information, go to: http:// facultygrants.library.cornell.edu.

The Billie Jean Isbell Andean Collection:

Anthropology Professor Emerita Billie Jean Isbell has a 40-year accumulation of slides and photographs documenting her studies in the south-central region of the Peruvian Andes. Working with Digital Consulting and Production Services (DCAPS), she selected approximately 1,500 images to be digitized and cross-referenced with her articles and books that describe the significance of community rituals in maintaining social structure and practices in these Peruvian communities. Cornell Library's collection on the Andes is second only to that in the Library of Congress, and the addition of Isbell's digital archive not only deepens Cornell's strength in this area, but also provides access for scholars worldwide.

History of Social Welfare:

Professors Josephine Allen (social work and social policy) and Margaret Washington (history) are working with DCAPS to create a Web portal that supports teaching and research on the history of social welfare development. Drawing on material in the library's Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, they selected early journals, reports, letters and photographs to be digitized. The Web site is designed to serve researchers interested in the development of social welfare programs in New York state, as well as those who are investigating the history of social well-being among both free and enslaved African-Americans.

Indonesia http://cip.library.cornell.edu/Indonesia:

Published by Cornell's Southeast Asia Program (SEAP), Indonesia is a semiannual journal devoted to the study of the nation's culture, history, government, economy and society. Using the library's Digital Publishing System software, staff members in DCAPS and the library's Center for Innovative Publishing worked with the journal's editorial team to create an online version of the publication and to digitize its archives. Indonesia now is published both in digital and print format.

Müller /Kluge interviews:

David Bathrick (German studies) and Rainer Stollmann (theater, film and dance, University of Bremen) are working with DCAPS to develop a Web site that will feature digital video segments from 22 interviews between the West German avant-garde filmmaker Alexander Kluge and the East German playwright Heiner Müller. Their discussions range from Freudian psychology to the fall of the Berlin Wall. The site will be bilingual with full captioning of all films and will also include an annotated bibliography (with links to available online full-text material), biographies and 2,000 pages of text from related articles, books and other publications.
