News from the Web

More than 59,000 hits were recorded on Special Collections web pages during the month of July. The Maryland Province Archives and the Harry Hopkins Papers were especially popular with researchers, and the catalog of British posters of WWI drew a respectable 1,200 hits-but even the relatively tiny Charles Guiteau Collection, a handful of printed and manuscript items by or related to the assassin of President Garfield, drew more than 200 hits.

Thanks to help received from the American Studies program, our first web page offering digitized versions of manuscript records, while not by any means complete, is now up, and Associates who want to sample the flavor of Catholic sermons from the colonial era can do so at http:/www.library.georgetown.edu/sermons/ .
