Huck Finn CD-ROM

Victor Doyno
SUNY–Buffalo

 

            We invite readers of The Mark Twain Circular to collect, xerox, and send comments, essays, or memories by authors about reading Adventures of Huckleberry Finn or about Mark Twain.  Writers’ comments that provide insight or explain influence would be especially useful.  These comments may be used in a planned CD-ROM edition of Huck Finn.  The new technology should allow this edition to accommodate as much information as 96 editions of Ulysses.

            The new collection will be a cooperative project by the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library Foundation Board and the Mark Twain Foundation.  The State University of New York at Buffalo Poetry/Rare Book Room, under Curator Robert Bertholf, will produce this CD-ROM as part of a larger digital-publishing program.

            Please forward the xeroxed comments with sources to Vic Doyno, English Department, 306 Clemens Hall, SUNY at Buffalo, NY 14260.  Thank you.
