I direct the Primeros Libros project, a collaborative, multinational effort to digitize and place on the web the 1st books printed in the Americas from 16th Century Mexico and Peru. This project spawned a book reader, Cobre, designed to allow for comparative view of exemplars of the same title using a filmstrip metaphor. Cobre has been modified and is part of the eMOP. Part of my work in Cushing involves exhibitions and we made modest use of digital methods in the WWI exhibition. I'd like to explore digital exhibitions more fully.
