The server presently provides connections toon-line library catalogues through a HYTELNET facility, to some data bases and FTP sites that contain materials relevant to historical studies, as well as a full text document archive, access to world-wide gophers, several works on the use of the Internet, some Gutenberg electronic texts, and other facilities. The History Network intends that HNSOURCE eventually provide connections to allpublic access facilities of use to historians, and to serve as a point of collection for materials that historians wish to share with the public. A bulletin board feature is ready to accommodate calls for papers, conference notices, job announcements and the like. HNSOURCE is a hypertext facility with switching facilities provided by LYNX. It is intended to offer a maximum of ease and simplicity of use, and comments, criticisms, and suggestions may be made to the operators from within the system To reach HNSOURCE: TELNET hnsource.cc.ukans.edu login: history no password required. Please feel free to browse and copy whatever you wish. We would particularly appreciate your comments and suggestions, as well as pointers to useful sources and sites, and the donation of whatever materials you think might be of use to others. Also, please think of HNSOURCE when you wish to make announcements of any sort, or if you wish to develop a professional electronic service of any kind. The more widely this facility is used, the more useful it will become. Operators: Marc Becker (MABECKER@UKANVM) Department of History University of Kansas Lynn H.

It is quite long (about 67k) so I am not sending it right now in case your mailer cannot accept items that long. If you would like to see it, just send me a note and I will send it to you. The directory describes various projects that produce and distribute electronic text databases and gives contact addresses for the projects. We have posted this file and many others on our server and made them available via anonymous FTP and Gopher, and I will send you a short file describing how to access these, if you wish to take a look for yourself.
