Dear List Members:

I am very pleased to announce to you all that yesterday afternoon we
posted the first installment of the phased, further expansion of the New
Jersey State Archives' website. This next phase includes posting
finding aids and imaged collections linked to the browsable catalog
unveiled a few months ago. The first round of on-line guides includes
the following groups of records:

Atlantic County Clerk's Office:
http://www.njarchives.org/links/webcat/queries/catclerk.html

Atlantic County Surrogate's Office:
http://www.njarchives.org/links/webcat/queries/catsurro.html

Department of Defense - Civil War:
http://www.njarchives.org/links/webcat/queries/sedefen4.html

Morris Canal:
http://www.njarchives.org/links/webcat/queries/pcanalmo.html

From the pages listed above, link to the finding aid for a specific
record series. Not all collections have guides, and some finding aids
are simple listings of box or reel contents (e.g., county records on
microfilm). However, in many cases you will find institutional
histories, content notes, and item-level descriptions. As additional
finding aids are posted, more and more research will be possible online
or planned prior to a trip to the Archives.

Of special note in yesterday's postings are two imaged collections:
Civil War carte-de-visites (over 400) and Morris Canal Views from 1903.
These images can be accessed through the Civil War and Morris Canal
pages mentioned above via the record series, or directly through the
Imaged Collections page at:

http://www.njarchives.org/links/imgcollections.html

Special thanks go to Archives staff members Veronica Meyer, Lois Bredlow
and Joanne Nestor for their excellent work on refining pages, html
mark-up and scanning images. Thanks also to DARM/Department staff
Daniel Noonan and Richard Allen and our Division Director Karl Niederer
for their ongoing support.

Enjoy the site! We'll keep you posted on further developments.

Best regards,

Joseph R. Klett
Chief of Archives

P.S. Please forward to any relevant lists or bulletin boards.
