DIGITAL ARCHIVES
The Phylaxis Society does not have the resources to maintain a traditional library or storage facility for its paper archives. The Society is actually struggling to find paper copies of its important records—proceedings of the annual convention, magazines, newsletters, and so forth—for its own use and for use by future researchers. The long-range goal of the Digital Archives Program is to create a digital record of all materials published by the Society—magazines, newsletters, proceedings, and the like—and to make it all available on in digital form..
