"SCETI, a fully integrated digital library, was created in 1996 to publish virtual facsimiles of rare books and manuscripts in the Penn Library's collections. Its ongoing mission is to make accessible to the global community of scholars and researchers primary source materials that would otherwise be difficult to access. The site is free and open to all in the interests of knowledge and learning." Collections include the following: Furness Shakespeare Library; Smith Chemistry Collection; Theodore Dreiser Web Sources; Medieval & Renaissance Manuscripts; 19th Century American History; University of Pennsylvania Art Collection; Marian Anderson Photographs; Jewish Music Archive; and, Virtual Gallery Exhibits. This will be added to Academic Resources 2004 Internet MiniGuides.
