Babbage Institute (CBI) is proud to announce the
availability of the online finding aid for the collection: Association
for
Computing Machinery Records, 1947-2007 (CBI 205) at <a
href="http://purl.umn.edu/51982"><http://purl.umn.edu/51982></a>.
<o:p></o:p>Everyone at CBI is excited to make this collection
accessible and we invite
scholars to make use of the materials on-site or to make inquiries and
requests
for information via phone, email, or IM on the CBI website, <span
style=""><a href="http://www.cbi.umn.edu/">http://www.cbi.umn.edu/</a><br>
<br>
C</span>BI is preparing online and physical exhibits about the history
of
ACM, featuring materials from this and related collections housed here.
The on-site exhibit will be on display in the atrium of the University
of
Minnesota’s Elmer L. Andersen Library, January 11 – March 5, 2010.
Further
information about both exhibits will be posted to this list and on the
CBI
website as it becomes available.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"

would like to thank Pat Ryan and the ACM for their generosity with
this collection and its processing. I would also like to thank Loralee
Bloom,
Project Archivist, for all of her wonderful work on the collection, as
well as
her student assistant Valerie MacDonald, whom CBI was fortunate enough
to
retain after completion of the project and who will - no doubt - prove
immensely
valuable in our exhibition ventures.</p>
