Yes, UMass Amherst also got the film and letter. Odd that.

Subject: [SERIALST] Re: NA Publishing Saga

 

Now for the latest chapter in the NA Publishing saga.  Yesterday we received several rolls of microfilm for The Times (London).  Alas, they were rolls we already had received.  However, there was an interesting note in with the rolls from Brewster Kahle of the Internet Archive.  He explained the Internet Archive had purchased the NA Publishing microfilm collection. He said they had found these unsent rolls in the vault and so were sending them along hoping they are of use to us.

He went on to say they are digitizing the microfilm they purchased.  He wonders if we are interested in digital versions of the film and they are unsure what they will do with the digital files.  He goes on to solicit suggestions of what they might do with the collection.

Did anyone else receive this?

Thanks
Mark
