Internet-First University Press – Cornell University URL Links https://ecommons.cornell.edu/handle/1813/62 An Incremental Directory of Contents of the Internet-First University Press The Digital Repository for An Open Access Publishing Project at Cornell University Compiled by J. Robert Cooke, Kenneth M. King, and Charles Walcott This project, Creating an Open Access Paradigm for Scholarly Publishing1, was initiated in 2002 by the Office of the University Faculty at Cornell Uni- versity. The late Ross Atkinson, Associate University Librarian for Collections, also played an active role. From our 2006 report, “The motivation for our efforts relate primarily to the emergence and maturing of the Internet as a means for convenient and inexpensive worldwide communication. In addition, we are seeking a more satisfactory and less expensive approach to the commercial publishing model”. The Cornell University Library hosts and maintains eCommons@Cornell. The Cornell Association of Professors Emeriti added its sponsorship to the Histories and Biographies collections. 1 https://hdl.handle.net/1813/3460 & https://hdl.handle.net/1813/36253 Acknowledgments The Internet-First University Press content appears online at Cornell University’s eCommons for open access distribution.

Robert Cooke We gratefully acknowledge the supportive role of the Cornell University Library, which embraced the implementation of the DSpace digital re- pository and eCommons@Cornell. We especially thank George Kozak and Mira Basara, who assured its successful operation and who posted the IFUP content from the beginning of this project to the present. Glen Palmer and his colleagues (Cornell Broadcast Studios, earlier Cornell Information Technologies, and the Fall Creek Studio) provided vid- eo services for many of our earlier videos. Peter Carroll (Peter Carroll Productions) was videographer for most of our oral history interviews, and for many of the public symposia and other public events. Chad O’Shea, Elizabeth Cunningham, and their colleagues at Cornell Business Services provided invaluable assistance with layout (initially) and the printing of all our perfect bound books. version: 29 March 2019 Published by The Internet-First University Press http://ecommons.library.cornell.edu/handle/1813/62 Ithaca, NY, USA ©2019 Cornell University All rights reserved, except as noted above.
