Preparation for publication of print volume 10 of the selected papers of inventor Thomas Edison (1847-1931), covering the years 1890-1892. (12 months)

This grant will fund work on the book edition of the Thomas A. Edison Papers and the transition of that edition to a series of thematic guides. During the grant period we will also work on building out our digital image edition, uploading collections from the edition to the Internet Archive, and developing an integrated digital edition that will encompass the book volumes, thematic guides, and digital image edition.
