419 - Project possibility
Jessica Steytler has asked whether a student in the course would be interested in the following project:
http://www.congregationallibrary.org/
Located in Boston's historic Beacon Hill, the Congregational Library offers researchers, readers, and browsers an extensive array of contemporary and classic religious material. Our collection includes a wide variety of resources on American religion, New England local and town histories, and, of course, three hundred years of records documenting the history of American Congregationalism.
The Bulletin, published quarterly by the Library and contains articles, book reviews, and news on topics of interest. The original index was completed in 1989. The current project is to bring the guide up to date and combine the old material with the new into a cohesive, digital form.
The original index emanates from a 419 project conducted in 1989!
