Longterm Content Plans

Comprehensive Hypertext Bibliography Planned
A longterm goal of the Walker Percy Project is to develop a comprehensive, annotated hypertext bibliographic structure combining the complete resources of Walker Percy: A Comprehensive Descriptive Bibliography (Hobson, 1988) and Walker Percy: A Reference Guide (Kramer et al., 1983) with the existing, up-to-date bibliographic materials already present in the project. If you would like to assist in this goal, please contact us. The bibliographic hypertext project seeks to combine this effort with the project's archive and annotations services described at left.

The Walker Percy personal papers inventory is already indexed in the project, and in time, we hope to have the further cooperation of both the Harry Ransom Humanities Center at the University of Texas at Austin, and Loyola University, New Orleans, in providing access to more information about all of the Walker Percy collections.


Special Content Search

The project is seeking video and audio footage of Percy as well as photographs, personal remembrances, and interviews. Please contact us if you have any leads. We also encourage you to contact us about other resources that you think might be of interest to project users.


Volunteer Opportunities

Please consider our volunteer opportunities as another way to contribute to the project in an editorial or administrative capacity.
