Some case studies: MSM, Willard, NI, Karen Kossuth, Rosanne, Paul Fortier, Allan Kulikoff, Dan Smith, LB <h1>What is an Electronic Text <h2>A Bit-Mapped Image In late 1990, Xerox came out with a monster new printer/computer combination.

Learn from the chapter 9 crowd! <li>standardization of formats (or heaven help the archivists) <li>stay away from that data-island! <li>What is an archive on a network? </ol> <h1> </body> <!> [</gdoc>
