Hi everyone,
I was doing some searching today and I found some cool stuff in the
Gallaudet University Digital Archives.
The coolest thing I found was a HUGE (complete?) archive of The Silent
Worker, an American Deaf newspaper thatwas in circulation from 1888 to
1929. This is a real piece of Deaf history. You can search inside for
various topics. I used it today to get some information on Rev. Job
Turner for a presentation I'm giving in my ASL III class at HCC tonight.
Here's a link to The Silent Worker:

For anyone interested in Cued Speech (I wrote a couple papers on it),
there are many papers in the R. Orin Cornett Memorial Cued Speech
Collection.
Here's a link to the Cued Speech Collection:
