Design
Special thanks to Ronnie Sampson and Nancy Martin of Viridian for the original logo and site design. And to Patrick Vickers, Ryan Cales, Greg Krull, and Bri Spicer, our thanks for our current logo. A much belated and overdue thanks to Katie Lynch Thibault for her recoding of the site more than a decade ago. Thanks as well to Patrick Scott Vickers for his contributions to that coding and many other efforts. Likewise to Joe Woods, especially for changes he made to site defaults, and for his Blackbird-O-Matic code converter that we continue to use.

Technology & Publishing Support, Virginia Commonwealth University
College of Humanities and Sciences Technology Services: John Skaritza, John Seo, Mike Dunham, Ramont Reed, James Archer, Logan Bishop & staff.

Special thanks to Jennifer Elswick, Webmaster, College of Humanities and Sciences, and Jimmy Ghaphery, Associate Dean for Scholarly Communications and Publishing, Cabell Library, for their longsuffering engagement in discussions about digital publishing and the future of digital archives.
