If the documents, images or audio clips you want us to consider are not
your own, we will need written permission from the author or artist to
reproduce them here. We will, of course, include copyright notices, as
long as you include them with the submission. Following the guidelines,
below, will help us consider your submission:
Title
Short but descriptive. Also, suggest where on the site you think this
document would be best placed. We may wind up putting it someplace else,
but as the site gets richer and more complex, a hint about where you
think it belongs will be very helpful to us. Also, let us know if you
see any other place on our site that should have links directly to this
article.
Summary (25-100 words)
The description should be enough information for someone to know whether
they want to open up the document, but not so long it’s a document
in itself.
Document format
WORD is best. We can translate some other formats, but if you can get
it into WORD format, it will save us a great deal of effort. It’s
OK to have pictures or graphics embedded in the WORD file. Please make
sure the document is properly attributed to the source.
Hyperlinks
Let us know if there are any mentions of web addresses in your article
and I’ll be sure to make sure they are properly linked on the
web site. If there are other sites that relate to this submission, mention
them as well, either in the article or in the summary.
Supplementary photos or graphics
If you have any photos that supplement the document (or can give us
web links to them), please send them. A few photos can make a document
come to life and it’s easy for us to insert them. If they are
not already embedded in the document, suggest where in the text we should
insert them. We will probably choose one of them as a thumbnail to put
with the description (see our Social Application page for examples of
how we'd like to be able to use photos). They can be in almost any electronic format (JPG, GIF, TIF, etc.).
Audio
We can convert audio in most forms including cassette tape and audio
CD. We still would like a title and summary and suggestion for where
the clip might go. A photo or graphic would be nice, too.
Submissions can be
emailed
