Letter from the VAN editor




Welcome to the new electronic VAN, the newsletter of VAF!  I am the newly appointed editor of VAN, Christine Henry, and I am really excited to bring the publication into the digital age and make it even more accessible and useful for everyone.  But first I want to thank Marvin Brown, the longtime editor of VAN for all of the wonderful issues of the printed newsletter over the years as well as his guidance and help during my transition as editor. 

You may have noticed that we have been on a bit of a hiatus from publishing.  The move to a digital newsletter has been a part of a larger movement to digitize the membership records and bibliography, making it even easier for all our members to keep in touch with us and access all of the resources of VAF membership.  We now have a great system that will integrate many functions smoothly, and I will resume our regular quarterly publication schedule.  So, if you have any news items, such as announcements, calls for papers, queries, opportunities or exhibit reviews, please send them to me at VANeditor@vafweb.org, by the first of the month: March, June, September, and December for publication at the beginning of the following month.  Also, we love to have images, and can include lots in the new format, so please include those with your submissions. 

The design of the newsletter is a work in progress, and I welcome suggestions from the members any time.  Thanks so much!  I look forward to working to provide a great and useful newsletter for everyone.  Hope to see you all in New Jersey in May!  For a little more information on me, feel free to visit http://www.arch.umd.edu/hisp/people/staff

Bibliography Moves to Zotero



With the transition of the VAN into an all-electronic format, we are pleased to announce a complementary transition for the VAF bibliography.  Initiated in 1979, the bibliography is a running list of sources relevant to Vernacular Architecture studies containing more than 28,000 entries.   Beginning this spring the complete bibliography will be available in a Zotero database  VAF Bibliography.  Developed by the Roy Rosenzweig Center for New Media at George Mason University, Zotero is open-source reference software to manage bibliographic data and related research materials.  As a standard bibliographic management tool it is capable of creating reference lists to be used in footnotes and bibliographies.  However, individual VAFers need not worry about adding to the comprehensive list by using Zotero, but we can all access the master Zotero list and extract sources for our own uses.  It can also be searched and browsed as a standard bibliography. Additionally, Zotero is integrated with WorldCat and other major databases.   David Bergstone initiated this project has been overseeing the herculean task of migrating existing entries from FileMaker to Zotero.

At the same time that the bibliography is going open-source digital, we are happy to announce two new bibliographers, who will be working as a team to maintain it and add new entries.  The latest additions will be reported in each issue of the VAN as in the past.  The team consists of C. Ian Stevenson (charlesian@hotmail.com) and Zachary Violette (zviolette@gmail.com).  Stevenson and Violette take over for Virginia Price, who has served as bibliographer for a number of years.

Iam Stevenson, co-bibliographer

C. Ian Stevenson holds a Master’s Degree in Preservation Studies from Boston University’s American and New England Studies Program, where his thesis focused on the late nineteenth century comprehensive architectural program of two interconnected railroads in rural Maine. He is Assistant Editor for the Humanities and Administrator of the Loeb Classical Library and The I Tatti Renaissance Library at Harvard University Press, where he has contributed to the major digitization project of the century-old Loeb Classical Library.





Zach Violette, co-bibliographer
Zachary Violette is a Ph.D. Candidate in the American and New England Studies Program at Boston University, set to graduate in May. His dissertation, “Fantastic Shapes and Unfamiliar Profiles: The Decorated Tenements of Boston and New York, 1860-1910” explores the intersection of class, ethnicity, and architectural ornament in a building type common to major American cities. That project’s research methodology involves adapting database and other Digital Humanities techniques to vernacular architecture questions.

Please feel free to send items for inclusion to either Ian or Zach.


Bibliography (Fall 2013 and Winter 2014)

Notes: Because scaled plans and drawings, as well as builder's original drawings, are a vital part of many vernacular architecter ene landscape studies, their use is indicated in the bibliography as follows: D=Drawing, section, elevation other scaled or contemporary drawings other than plans; M=Map; P=Plan, scaled or original; S=Site Plan; and X=None of the above.  The absence of a symbol means that the information is not know for that item.
