Montana Authors Project
Missoula Public Library went "live" this week with a new product—the Montana Authors Project—a web-based resource that brings some of your favorite regional literature to digital life. Check it out:
http://www.missoulapubliclibrary.org/map
The content was selected and designed by Karl Olson and Cara Cadena at Missoula Public Library. I did the web development, and the project was funded by Humanities Montana. There will be a panel about the Montana Authors Project this weekend at the Humanities Montana's Festival of the Book (Friday, 1:30pm, at the library; check the HM website for the full schedule of events: http://www.humanitiesmontana.org)
There are many more great Montana books to "map." We hope to roll out another phase of the project in the future. If you think your library, school or museum would have an interest in collaborating, please contact Karl at kolson@missoula.lib.mt.us.

Ken Egan replied to Humanities Roundtable's discussion 'The Trail Book Club - The Royal Wulff Murders'"Good response, Kathleen! You raise many questions for others to consider. Just two questions on my part: What do you make of Martha Ettinger, the lead detective (sheriff) in Royal Wulff Murders? She's a Montana woman who loves…"
"Did anyone notice Charles Johnson's article about the gubernatorial candidates, where Neil Livingstone promised to call a Constitutional Convention, in particular, to get rid of the "clean and healthful environment" language?"
