APS website searchable documents -- 1200+!
Posted: Tue Aug 21, 2018 1:18 pm
Hiya folks,
I noticed Rod Pickett's post earlier today on the "Violinola" thread (here: http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... 28#p219528), showing results from his "Ola" search request at the APS website, and I was curious to see of any new website developments -- as I frequently do when something captivates my curiosity.
I saw a new image on the "scrolling" APS homepage that included a clickable link, which took me to a listing of the large number of searchable documents contained in the online archive available to us, and thought I should share my discovery with you all -- in case you haven't seen what's available for members to view. http://www.antiquephono.org/wp-content/ ... isting.pdf
The catalog section alone is amazing!
I tend to take the Society for granted, but the availability of this search capability (and of course the fabulous quarterly Journal), reminds me that the incredible amount of information more than justifies the cost of a Society membership. I just wanted to take the time to thank them, and I hope others appreciate the immense amount of volunteer work the folks at the APS are doing for us all -- on a daily basis. If you aren't currently a member, join. If you haven't renewed your membership this year, I urge you to do that right now.
Best regards, my phonophriends!
