children's literature
I8 t. 186,9
The University of Florida seeks support from the National Endowment to preserve and
make accessible some 8,600 volumes of children's literature, published in the United
States and Great Britain, between 1850 and 1869. This project is phase one of a
threephase program that eventually will encompass 28,000 titles of children's literature
published between 1850 and 1910. These books form part of the Baldwin Library of
Historical Children's Literature, housed in the Department of Special Collections at the
University of Florida. Under this project, the titles will be microfilmed for preservation and
cataloged into the national bibliographic databases. Because about one-sixth of the titles
contain color information (illustrations, book covers, etc) which cannot easily be preserved
through microfilm, the project will digitize them to provide intellectual access to the color
data. The digitized titles will be available through CD-ROM, DVD, or facsimile reprint,
and/or through the Internet.
