Archives ; ar Special Subject Virtual Libraries ; is "The Online Archive of Nineteenth-Century U.S. Women's Writings is a collection of new scholarly editions of nineteenth-century U.S. women's writings and resources for continued research about them. Some of the primary texts reproduced here are well-known classics, while others have been out of print since their original publication in the 19th century. The major purpose of The Archive was to provide students an opportunity to work on projects in literary publishing and web design while, hopefully, providing a service to the general reader and to teachers of literature and history who wish to use these pages for study and classroom use." Featured authors include: Lydia Maria Child (1802-1880); Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1815-1852); Harriet Prescott Spofford (1835-1921); Sarah Orne Jewett (1849-1909); Kate Chopin (1857-1904); Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935); Victoria Earle Matthews (1861-1907); Willa Cather (1873-1947); and Zitkala-Sa or Gertrude Bonnin (1876-1938).

"The mission of the museum is to promote the reading and appreciation of all forms of imaginative South African literature in English. Its principal functions are to collect and conserve material evidence pertaining to this literature, to publicise and popularise it, and to provide all sections of the reading public, both locally and abroad, with the means of access to it.The Museum started in 1972 as a collection of documents and has grown, over the years, into a national resource funded principally by the Central Government."The NELM website provides links to lists of the collections housed in the museum, research topics and bibliographies, as well as outreach programmes and teaching aids, such the NELM backpack series. NELM backpacks comprise copies of collated biographical material and secondary sources on individual Southern African authors including J.M.
