The Library of Virginia is pleased to announce the beta launch of two new Web sites. Over the past several months, we have been busy examining and redesigning our agency Web site in order to make information about our collections, programs, and services more accessible to our many and varied audiences. In addition, we've created a new site, Virginia Memory. Inspired by memory projects at other institutions, including the Library of Congress and the State Archives of Florida, our goal with Virginia Memory is to bring new and exciting digital content, as well as our traditional digital collections, to the attention of all users, whether genealogists, historians, casual researchers, or educators and students. The beta version of our agency site is available at http://beta.lva.virginia.gov <http://beta.lva.virginia.gov/> Beta Virginia Memory is available at http://www.virginiamemory.com <http://www.virginiamemory.com/> "Beta" means we're still in production, making edits, adding content, and playing with the technology. As such, you may see some odd, incomplete items along the way. Please forgive us as we get it all straight. In the meantime, we are always happy to receive your feedback-comments, criticisms, and questions-at [log in to unmask] Enjoy! ______________________________________ To subscribe, change options, or unsubscribe please see the instructions at http://listlva.lib.va.us/archives/va-hist.html
