Congress Allots Additional $500,000 for Virtual Vietnam Archive

On December 28, 2001, Congressman Larry Combest visited the Vietnam Archive at TTU to announce the reception of an additional $500,000.00 from the United States Government to continue digitizing the materials in its collections. The project is expected to take four years to complete at a cost of approximately $2 million. This additional funding will allow for the continual addition of materials into the Virtual Vietnam Archive as collections are received for many years to come. The Vietnam Archive has received $961,000.00 to date. You can read a local newspaper story about this project which was published in the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal (see link below).
