The Papers of Abraham Lincoln is a long-term project dedicated to identifying, imaging, and publishing all documents written by or to Abraham Lincoln
during his entire lifetime (1809-1865). The final product for the Papers of Abraham Lincoln will be a freely accessible comprehensive electronic edition
of documents written by and to Abraham Lincoln, as well as reports of his speeches and other writings.
On the electronic side, the project will produce a linked set of document images and annotated transcriptions that will become part of the project's
freely accessible Internet site. Users can view the images of the original documents or search the text of the transcriptions and annotations through a
sophisticated search engine. On the print side, the project will produce multiple volumes of appropriately annotated transcriptions of Lincoln's writings
and correspondence addressed to him.
