Perhaps we could scan the entire volume of The University in the Forest (2002 edition) and place it on U-KNOW. The volume is Copyright John T. Cunningham 2002, BUT . . . 

  • The edition is 21 years old. 
  • The author John T. Cunningham has been deceased for almost 11 years.

This book should be scanned.  I cannot see any potential Copyright repercussions if full volume access is strictly limited to within the Drew Community, i.e. behind the authentication needed to get into U-KNOW.

Is there a way to display a PDF file nicely within U-KNOW? How about this?

The PDF above is a 6 page OCR'd PDF trial case.  It takes awhile to load in U-Know, but this work for something in-house.

I find that searching for terms is more accurate if the PDF is downloaded and the user searches through the serach capabilities of , say, PDF-Xchange Editor.  Searching through the Google Browser with the PDF just up on the screen in the wiki did not work as well.

There is also the Fall 1992 Drew Magazine issue that celebrates the quasquicentennial.
