      <p>We will serve HTML documents from a list of manuscript collections on our web site (from a
        MS Access dbase), and links from MARC records. We are also exploring various search engine
        applications.</p>

      <p>I use Notetab with Daniel Pitti's markup scripts, modified for local use. We use James
        Clark's parsers and XT for HTML conversion (provided by Pitti at Rare Books School). I use a
        modified XSL stylesheet taken from the EAD Cookbook (eadcbs2) for creating the HTML.
        Conversion of legacy data is being performed by Electronic Scriptorium (Leesburg, Va.) using
        our Notetab system. We haven't explored converting the print finding aids, yet. New finding
        aids will probably be created using a hybrid Notetab/XMetal process, and Alvin Pollock's MS
        Access report process for doing container lists.</p>
