Abstract

Such was the title of a recent PBS program on the current information revolution made possible by electronics. Some of the opportunities which this technology offers to historical editors were explored at a conference in Philadelphia on 4-5 May 1981 entitled "Modern Technology and Historical Editing: National Historical Publications and Records Commission Word Processing Conference." The program focused on the use of word processors and computers by historical editors to expedite the publication of multi-volume printed editions.
