After several years of trying to find data on the Lancaster Digitation Project, I continue to be disappointed in what it offers. I will guess that lack of funds is the primary reason, but that does not assuage my disappointment at rarely being able to find information that I am seeking. Lancaster is not well covered by either GenealogyBank or NewspaperArchives and remains a historical black hole as far as online newspaper access is concerned.

Great news! OCLC has agreed to sponsor the anniversary celebration/event. OCLC and Friends of Ganser funding will provide some catered refreshments. OCLC funding will also be used for the exhibition--especially the section dedicated to digital collections.

We are trying to get a more accurate headcount for the anniversary celebration. We have had several administrators and special guests respond to the "save-the-date" letter we sent out before the invitations and we would like to have a better idea of the LCDP members who will attend. Please RSVP to me at heather.tennies@lancasterhistory.org or let us know at the May 4 meeting. Thanks!
