WELCOME TO THE NEW 17 MOMENTS! Long-time users of the site will notice several improvements, including a responsive layout (works on tablets and smart phones), updated design, and enhanced navigation. First time visitors can acquaint themselves with the back story of the site here and here, or proceed directly to the repository, which may be accessed chronologically or by topic. Users will be interested to know that a mirror site is currently being developed in collaboration with the University of Illinois Library. The most up-to-date version of the site is still to be found here with Matrix at Michigan State. All inquiries about the site can be sent to James von Geldern.

We always welcome proposals for new modules, especially for the seventies.  Please email James von Geldern, Lewis Siegelbaum or Amy Nelson if you are interested in developing new material for the site.  Subject essays should be concise (ca. 750 words) and include supporting multi-media material that can be made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 License.
