When I was writing up my dissertation I worked for a while at the University of Virginia’s Alderman Library Etext Center. My colleague and partner Marybeth Eleanor Culley (who now goes by Marybeth Nevins), who was also a grad student working at Etext, was interested in developing Harry Hoijer’s 1938 monograph on Apache language and culture into an online resource. I helped her to develop Chiricahua and Mescalero Apache Texts, a searchable, bilingual database built from Hoijer’s original collection. Unfortunately Alderman Library shut Etext down a few years ago, and the front-end user-interface that I developed for the Apache Texts collection has been lost to the passage of internet time. However, something of the old interactive text collection and database has been archived in the Wayback Machine, and can be explored using the link above.
