Dear Colleagues:

It gives me great pleasure to announce that, yesterday, over 400
additional guides to collections were posted to the [New Jersey] State Archives
website <www.njarchives.org>. The guides range from simple box lists to
complete finding aids with institutional histories, content notes and
item-level descriptions. Among the new postings are four photographic
image collections (see below). Choose the "State Archives" link from
the main page (above the image), and then the "Catalog" link from the
sidebar. Guides are linked from the catalog descriptions. URLs for the
additional holdings pages that now include guide links are also provided
below.

In the "shameless self-promotion department," we are also proud to
announce that the Mid-Atlantic Regional Archives Conference's Finding
Aids Committee has named the New Jersey State Archives among its annual
award winners for archival collection guides based on the posting of our
online catalog and several hundred website pages and guides last year.
The award will be presented at the MARAC Spring 2004 in Arlington, VA,
at the end of this month.

We hope to post the first round of Documentary Treasures and Searchable
Databases this spring. I will continue to make announcements as new
postings occur.

Thanks go to DARM and departmental staff for their support of our
ongoing efforts to expand the State Archives' website. In particular, I
would like to acknowledge Archives staff members Veronica Meyer
(webmaster), Lois Bredlow and Joanne Nestor for their excellent work on
html mark-up, page design and scanning of images. Also, special thanks
to Gary Saretzky for nominating the site for the MARAC award.

Again, see below for direct links. Please feel free to forward or post
this message to any relevant list-serves. Thanks and best wishes!

Joseph R. Klett
Chief of Archives
