– The opportunity to capture materials within the context and in communication with the contributors.<\/p>\n

– Express digitization grant from the national network of libraries of medicine. 2010-2011<\/p>\n

– library promotion
\n– certain context easily lost can be preserved
\n– materials previously unidentified or scattered are gathered together<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
