The Vietnam Project provides online access to primary sources, images and other material about the American Vietnam experience.
(Excerpt from the February 1, 2005 issue of Library Journal)
Texas Tech University, Lubbock, is ramping up The Vietnam Project with several massive digitization initiatives that will make major resources far more accessible. Launched in 1989, the project consists of two units, The Vietnam Center and The Virtual Vietnam Archive, along with smaller subdivisions: The Oral History Project, The Vietnam Archive, and The Teachers' Resource Web. "We have over two million pages online. When you add the eight to 12 million pages of microfilm materials we have, we're looking at a potential digital archive of anywhere between 20 and 25 million pages," associate director and archivist Steve Maxner told LJ.
