ABSTRACT
SUMMARY. The author describes the University of Minnesota’s project to digitize materials relating to Russian culture and readership from the first half of the 19th century. The materials digitized are prepared using the TEI Lite DTD and a variety of software programs, including OmniPage Pro, Cuneiform, and FineReader (OCR packages); Author-Editor (SGML authoring software); and INSO Corporation’s DynaText/DynaWeb SGML-based electronic publishing software. The project has a strong teaching mission, intended to demonstrate to faculty and students the ways in which sophisticated encoding schemes and software packages can be adapted to individual needs of researchers. The author describes the main issues involved and problems encountered in operating the project. [Article copies available for a fee from The Haworth Document Delivery Service: 1-800-HAWORTH.
