Summary
To establish context for this presentation, I should introduce myself as someone whose textual-genetic and bibliographic scholarship is best known in Yeats studies, in connection with the Palgrave Macmillan and Cornell series and the W. B. Yeats Collection at the National Library of Ireland. I'm also the editor of The South Carolina Review and executive editor of Clemson University Digital Press (CUDP). In that connection, this paper is largely autobiographical as I consider the agenda at hand for producing monographs on Woolf and bibliographic studies in my particular workshop.
I
In 2001, the Clemson University Digital Press was born and, with it, The South Carolina Review On-Line Library (or SCROLL). Soon after, a themed number from 1996, Virginia Woolf International, became a list of digital articles and monographs in that library. In the last eight years, CUDP has published the Selected Papers from Virginia Woolf conferences numbers 11, 13 and 15-21, with numbers 22 and 23 anticipated for the two Canadian conferences. For a time, we made pdf facsimiles available with “read only” access by subscription at the Center for Virginia Woolf Studies (CSU-Bakersfield), which ceased operation a couple of years ago. The whole “Virginia Woolf International” segment of Clemson's SCROLL site has undergone at least three major renovations to integrate and better present its articles, its links to the Selected Papers, and its monographic series (for example, Virginia Woolf's Illnesses, Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, and An Annotated Guide to the Writings and Papers of Leonard Woolf). The network has grown like an organism, and this shrubbery has required tending with respect to a number of complexly reciprocal branches. I want to give you a sense of really only the Woolf branches as they relate to the whole picture. If you can see where we are, you can imagine, with me, where we might be going in a few more years. And I use the word “we” to refer at once to the small university press at Clemson but also broadly to all of us in academia, especially the research institutions. So let me explain how the options of print and online publishing on the Woolfs are progressing at CUDP in spite of some harrowing economic challenges incumbent to public universities today.
