Dr. David L. Rosenberg, Archivist UE Archives and Labor Collections 

Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania Labor Legacy Web Site.  With skilled and dedicated assistance of undergraduate student John Montoya and financial support from area labor unions over the past three years, we have created a web site designed to highlight Labor Collections and also serve as the starting point for a hopefully ongoing effort to "map" the labor history of this region. This site, though still a work in progress, is now up on the ULS server: http://www.library.pitt.edu/labor_legacy/. 

I have continued to pursue the possibility of a joint scholarly and archival venture between the University of Pittsburgh and 
cooperating partners in Germany.  In pursuit of this, I travelled to Germany with Wolfgang Schloer of UCIS in October, 2001, to meet with potential partner organizations in Munich and Cologne.
