The E-Sylum:  Volume 5, Number 44, November 3, 2002, Article 4

E-SYLUM HARDCOPY PROJECT UPDATE

  At the end of last year we announced a project
  aimed at producing a printed version of the first
  four volumes of The E-Sylum, taking it "out of
  cyberspace and onto shelf space" as a more
  permanent record.   We've been slowly but steadily
  working on it.  Our big break was David Fanning's
  offer to automate some of the required text editing,
  such as removing "line break" characters, inserting
  page breaks as needed, etc.  He also removed the
  common headers and footers to conserve space.
  Bill Malkmus has also been steadily working to
  maintain an index, which is now in the editing stage.

  The initial version (including the index) is on the
  order of 800 pages, but Tom Fort will work on
  squeezing it down to a more manageable number
  with double columns and a slightly smaller font.

  We do not have a selling price estimate yet, but it
  will be close to our cost.  Copies must be ordered and
  paid for in advance.   Several readers have indicated
  interest - please write to me if you'd like me to add you
  to the list.   Also, please let me know if you have an
  interest in a hardcover (or "Deluxe" hardcover) binding
  (or can recommend a binder to use).  Write to me at
  whomren at coinlibrary.com.
