I've been thinking about compiling a list of organizations, libraries, shops, etc., concerned with Mark Twain. The directory could be made available on LISTSERV for all who wanted it, and each entry would minimally include a description, mailing address, phone number, e-mail address (if any), information on publications, meetings, etc. Does anyone besides me consider this a worthwhile undertaking, and more specifically, does anyone want to volunteer for the task? While I could carry it out myself, I'd be happy to get another person(s) involved in this, especially someone who has other ideas and who might be able to maintain the directory after an initial version had been completed. Off the top of my head, I can think of several sources from which information could be consolidated: Encyclopedia of Associations, Mark Twain Circular, directories of special libraries, etc. Also, information about research-in-progress could be solicited from Forum subscribers for inclusion in a separate section. There's no limit, really, since the goal would be to end up with something as thorough as possible. Regards, Taylor Roberts
