ANS ONLINE PUBLICATIONS

  In response to a request for clarification about the American
  Numismatic Society's on-line publication program, Sebastian
  Heath writes: "The current focus of the ANS' on-line publication
  program is the conversion of the Society's own content into a
  permanent digital archive.  The first step in this effort is
  establishing the technical infrastructure by using a range of
  documents as test cases. There is not currently any procedure
  for vetting external submissions.  Should the Society move in
  this direction it would probably be through establishing a
  parallel online version of the existing American Journal of
  Numismatics but there are no concrete plans to do this right
  now. In general, readers can expect to see introductory and
  exhibition texts, materials related to the summer seminar, and
  the occasional "electronic reprint" of older documents.  It is
  true that documents will be made available in preliminary
  versions but this will always be clearly marked and is felt to
  be an advantage of this type of publication."
