— June 19, 1998 Bailiwick Project Chronicle of Higher Education “Unleashing ideas into the web’s digital space isn’t always easy. Librarians at the University of Iowa hope to change that. They have started a program called Bailiwick to encourage Iowa graduate students, professors, and staff members to build web sites that offer far more than the standard photographs and resumes. The library guides Bailiwick users to on- campus experts in web page design and multimedia, but people may [also] create pages on their own.”
