This project has been a team effort involving scholars, students, conservationists, scientists, archivists, librarians, web designers, artists, and colleagues. It has been made possible by direct support from a National Science Foundation grant (#1230911) and indirect support by numerous institutions and individuals. History projects rarely come out of laboratories or studios, but this website collection could not have been created without the team effort and we believe that it is a stronger resource because of this shared effort.
