Building the World A Finding Aid for the Research Collection of Kathleen Lusk Brooke, PhD. University of Massachusetts Boston Healey Library February 2013
For library hours and contact information please visit: http://www.umb.edu/library Building the World is a website born of the 2006 two-volume work of the same title by Frank P. Davidson and Kathleen Lusk Brooke. The books detail 41 of the world’s most incredible macro- engineering projects, including important documents in the creation of these projects. The books serve not only as histories of these great feats, but also as a collection of documents to be studied for future use.
In 2012, Lusk Brook gave her research collection to the University of Massachusetts Healey Library. At the same time, the website, Building the World, was begun in order that this information could be shared in an interactive and global manner. The site serves as a forum to invite discussion on the projects presented specifically, as well as the overarching theme of macro-engineering. Additionally the site acts as an introduction to the projects discussed in Building the World and provides supplemental materials and related links.
Below is the finding aid for the research collection. This collection is not archival, but does include a large number of resources no longer available to the public. In many cases these are websites that no longer exist save for in their printed versions found at Healey Library. Additionally, as a result of the books for which this collection was used, this is one of the few collections dedicated to macro- engineering.
Researcher’s notes: (1) Many of the dates for information found on website listings are simply the last date at which the author(s) accessed the site. Where possible, like with journals and articles, date of publication is listed instead. Additionally, whole site domains are not listed, as many have likely changed. Only the main host site is provided. (2) The projects are listed in the order in which they are found on the website, not as they are found as chapters in the books. For this reason the volume in which each project is found has been listed next to each project; i.e. BTW 1 means the project is found in Building the World volume 1. BOX 1
