Burrell, Matthew D.
Community & Junior College Libraries, v13 n4 p41-47 2005
Gulf Coast Community College in Panama City, Florida, is celebrating a fifty-year anniversary in 2007. Maintained by the library, the school's archives represent the historical contributions on a local and national level. Gulf Coast Community College library is ensuring the school's historical significance through the digitization of its materials. This article describes an archival project including sorting, preservation, and digitizing the school's photographic and paper documents using ContentDM. Excerpts of speeches delivered by Dr. Ted W. Booker, the first president of Gulf Coast are included. Currently, the electronic access is only available online through the school's intranet. Early in 2007, Gulf Coast's Memory Project will be available via the World Wide Web. (Contains 6 notes.)
