Hi John - Thanks for looking at it and commenting... Well it's just sort
of a beginning, a couple of nights cataloguing, I have no idea how much
there is in total. I never counted even the boxes... It's such a mess
because I've attempted to organize the thing at least twice along the
years, trying different systems and then given up some reason or other.
About browsing - I would like to get comments about the usability of the
interface, the data itself is stored in a text database and it is possible
to present it in a variety of different list formats. I'll create a browse
list for author names next.
I haven't even thought about scanning stuff yet, but I'm going to provide
low resolution images of at least some of the pieces.
Thanks,
Jukka

This looks like a great collection -
the only suggestion i would have for the catalog is to rearrange it
alphabetically by name in some way. It would be easier to browse that way.
I'm wondering id there's more or if this is just a start on what you
have. It's wonderful that you are cataloging it - extremely valuable
to do that. thank you!

Hi,
I've got boxes full of stuff from the 90s and some of it is good and some
is crap, but I've finally gotten to cataloguing all that stuff and
providing online access to the catalog - I would like to receive any
comments and ideas for the search/presentation interface:

Most of the "stuff" is visual poetry and mail art and related documents
and ephemera.
Thanks & Cheers,
Jukka
