Reminder: ROTUNDA Web Survey Closing Soon

["Jason G. Coleman" <jgc3h@virginia.edu>]

Last week the University of Virginia Press (UVaP) extended an 
invitation to library professionals to take part in an online 
survey about its new Founding Era Collection, a line of digital 
publications released through the Press's ROTUNDA imprint. We 
would like to thank the many individuals who took the time to 
participate in the survey. Your responses are extremely helpful.

The survey, originally scheduled to closed tomorrow (5/5), will 
be kept open through the weekend, so we invite anyone still 
interested in participating to please visit the survey at 
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=191602029501

Just as a reminder, here again is the project description from 
the original invitation: Funded in part by the Mellon Foundation, 
this ambitious project will offer the papers of historical 
figures published by other university presses as well as those by 
the UVaP. The fully searchable, XML-based digital collection will 
ultimately represent well over 100,000 pages and will include all 
of the editorial enrichment and indexing of the print volumes, 
making this scholarship available to new generations of 
researchers. The editions can be purchased individually or 
purchased together as the American Founding Era Collection.

We are seeking your help in identifying a distribution and 
pricing model that will allow non-profit university presses to 
find a balance between library preferences and digital production 
costs and distribution options.

Thank you in advance for taking time to assist us.  Please feel 
free to contact Jason Coleman at jgc3h@virginia.edu if you have 
any questions.

ROTUNDA will be sharing booth #2126 with Columbia University 
Press at the ALA Annual Conference in New Orleans.  I hope to 
have a chance to meet some of you there.
