Electronic Text Center:The University of Virginia has been building the Electronic Text Center since 1992. The intended purpose is to “build and maintain an Internet-accessible collection of SGML texts and images” and “to build and maintain a user community adept at the creation and use of these materials.” This page combines an archive of tens of thousands of SGML- and XML-encoded electronic texts and images. What truly impresses me is that the library service offers hardware and software suitable for the creation and analysis of text. The Electronic Text Center trains scholars to move text to electronic format, where it can then be indexed, collated, turned into a concordance, word list, etc. Virginia is building the database and has also established a model for training others to develop their own databases. A true library paradigm.
