ROCKEFELLER LIBRARY UNVEILS NEW WEBSITE
The John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library has unveiled a greatly expanded section
on the Colonial Williamsburg website (http://www.history.org), offering
individuals interested in the Colonial Chesapeake the opportunity to search
the library's vast collections. New features include PATRIOT, the
Rockefeller Library's online catalog listing the 68,000 titles in the
Library, and guides to manuscript, microfilm, selected photograph and other
research collections, such as the Shirley Plantation Collection of over
18,000 manuscript items. Previously, individuals had to physically visit
the library or be connected to an internal network to access these
resources.
"We have electronically opened the doors to our major collections by adding
finding aids and the Library catalog to the World Wide Web," says Public
Services Librarian Juleigh Clark. "Now, when researchers come to the
Library, they will have a better idea of what we own, and we can serve them
more efficiently." Other features on the website include a virtual exhibit
of some of the treasures from the Rockefeller Library's rare book and
manuscript collections and special indexes to articles in The Colonial
Williamsburg Journal and The Colonial Williamsburg Interpreter.
Of special interest is an index to the several hundred research reports
written at Colonial Williamsburg over the last sixty years. Early
American History Research Reports are distinguished for the significant
amount of primary source material in them and for their time and place
specificity: eighteenth-century Virginia.
The John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library is a research library specializing in
the history and culture of the colonial Chesapeake. It is located near the
Historic Area at 313 First Street and is open to the public. Library hours
are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
