Dear friends,

I was thinking about the Ari-Up tribute idea this morning. I have another
idea.

Since I am back in graduate school -- where I am studying to become both a
reference librarian and a digital librarian -- wouldn't it make sense for me
to create something like the beginnings of a Women in Punk online multimedia
library or archive dedicated to Ari-Up (maybe named after her)? So I could
apply my new learning to a topic I know and love as well as honor her legacy?

It may take some time to develop, and I know this falls under the category of
many projects you folks are already doing (sharon cheslow, jenny woolworth,
jason gross, joly, and the so many others I am obviously forgetting), but I'd
like to do something more inspirational and historic. I would like to start
small just for class projects and assignments, and then maybe I could get
some grant money to fund something bigger?

Your input is encouraged here.

...and thanks to those who volunteered to help with the ezine concept. (I'm
still going to need help!)
