The Presidential Recordings of Lyndon B. Johnson Digital Edition has won the Association of American Publishers’ 2011 PROSE Award for Best eProduct in the Humanities, and CHOICE magazine named it an Outstanding Academic Title for 2011.  Published by Rotunda, the digital imprint of the University of Virginia, the Edition contains “hundreds of hours of presidential tapes covering the major issues of Johnson’s administration, from the War on Poverty to the Civil Rights Movement to the Vietnam War…. Each conversation in the edition is fully transcribed and annotated and accompanied by its audio file, and the multimedia presentation includes photos and video galleries, a linked timeline, and powerful XML-based searching ability.”

The Cornell University Library subscribes to the Edition.  You can find it at http://resolver.library.cornell.edu/misc/7183041.
