We are now faced with the issues of how to = report the results of string searches, how to analyze the large number = of examples that result from such searches, how to find appropriate ways = of publishing in the digital format, how to assure longevity of our = data, and how to judge digital productions. The Korean Buddhist Canon = was at the forefront of the introduction of printing to Korea and it has = been one of the first major digital collections. It is possible to study = the history of technology and data transfer by looking at the role of = the Buddhist texts in the history of Korea.

The = Heritage of the=20 Russian North. HUB Art Gallery, UW. Exhibition: Photographs = by=20 William Craft Brumfield. "North" in Russia is a broad concept, = but=20 many Russians understand it as a historic region defined by a = network of=20 rivers and lakes leading to the White Sea. It is here that = ecology,=20 history, and culture have combined to create an area of harsh = extremes and=20 extraordinary beauty. Northern towns such as Vologda and = Arkhangelsk,=20 Totma and Velikii Ustiug played a great role not only in = sustaining=20 Russia's cultural and economic development during the sixteenth = and=20 seventeenth centuries, but also in the settlement of distant = Siberia and=20 the expansion of trading paths to Western Europe. Today, questions = of=20 architectural preservation have become especially urgent in view = of the=20 large number of log structures in this region. The photographer = can only=20 work with those remnants of the past that time and fate have = spared.
