The article highlights the author's favorite open search tools for finding open arts and humanities content. Topics discussed include the JURN search tool, which discovers the full text of open journals in the arts and humanities; the sister tool of JURN called GRAFT, which searches the world's academic repositories, and the extremely poor semantic interpretation of queries resulting in subsequent slowing down of Paperity, a multidisciplinary aggregator of OA journals and papers.
This article reports on the grant given by the Office of Preservation of the National Endowment for the Humanities to the Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC) in Andover, Massachusetts. The money will be used to continue the field service program of NEDCC which endeavors to educate institutions on the need for the preservation of research collections. The field service programs include on-site surveys of preservation needs, workshops and seminars, courses and lectures at library schools, informal consultation, distribution of technical information and disaster assistance. NEDCC is a nonprofit regional conservation center specializing in the treatment of paper and related materials.
