GPO and SMU Make World War II Documents Available
The U.S. Government Printing Office and Southern Methodist University’s Central University Libraries have cooperated in creating a digital collection of more than 300 full-text government documents that were issued during World War II. The collection can be searched or browsed at: http://worldwar2.smu.edu/
"The 62nd anniversary of Victory in Europe day on May 8 is an opportune moment to remind people of how this collection provides insight into the American experience during World War II," said Gillian M. McCombs, Dean and Director, Central University Libraries. "SMU values our role in preserving collections for the future and is happy to join GPO in using the latest technologies to maintain this historical information for generations to come."
