Hi Joel,

David's digital imagery will still be available online through his website for everyone to see and use (with the same open access policies).  We are also mounting the digital imagery on a Stanford site.  At this point, we don't have a way for people to download the images.  I'm not sure if we will do that given that the functionality exists from David's site.

Julie

I hope--and would assume (?)--that David Rumsey's open access policies, in
terms of use of the online images, would be generally maintained without
additional restrictions. Just checking.
