E-SYLUM HARDCOPY PROJECT UPDATE
At the end of last year we announced a project
aimed at producing a printed version of the first
four volumes of The E-Sylum, taking it "out of
cyberspace and onto shelf space" as a more
permanent record. We've been slowly but steadily
working on it. Our big break was David Fanning's
offer to automate some of the required text editing,
such as removing "line break" characters, inserting
page breaks as needed, etc. He also removed the
common headers and footers to conserve space.
Bill Malkmus has also been steadily working to
maintain an index, which is now in the editing stage.The initial version (including the index) is on the
order of 800 pages, but Tom Fort will work on
squeezing it down to a more manageable number
with double columns and a slightly smaller font.We do not have a selling price estimate yet, but it
will be close to our cost. Copies must be ordered and
paid for in advance. Several readers have indicated
interest - please write to me if you'd like me to add you
to the list. Also, please let me know if you have an
interest in a hardcover (or "Deluxe" hardcover) binding
(or can recommend a binder to use). Write to me at
