EPC Microhistory (forthcoming)
 WELCOME
to the Electronic Poetry Center. The EPC was founed in 1995
and serves as a central gateway to resources in electronic poetry
and poetics at the University at Buffalo, the University of Pennsylvania's
PennSound, UBU web, and on the Web at large. Our aim is simple:
to make available a wide range of resources centered on digital
and contemporary formally innovative poetries, new media writing,
and literary programming.
The EPC itself makes extensive resources available through its E-Poetry and Author libraries. These libraries
provide curated lists of resources on a focused range of authors for
personal use, research, and teaching. Additionally, the EPC curates
lists of links to similar digital and literary projects, related book
publishers, literary magazines, and other resources. In addition the
EPC offers substantial sound resources that will not be found elsewhere.
These include the vast resources of the PENNsound and UBU archives and the award-winning interview
and performances series of LINEbreak.
The EPC has been favorably reviewed in The Chronicle of Higher Education
and The Times Literary Supplement, among other publications,
for its breadth of vision, number of resources, and focus on innovative
media poetics in the digital age. It was also the sponsor of the first-ever
digital poetry festival, E-Poetry 2001, held in
Buffalo in April, 2001.
In addition to the vast number of works the it makes available, the
EPC offers the innovation of providing a curated collection of
primary literary texts. Accordingly, texts housed at the Electronic
Poetry Center are "definitive" texts as each has been approved by its
producers. In addition, through OCLC's U.S. Department of Education-funded
project CIRG (Cataloging Internet Resources Group), and the initiative
of the University at Buffalo's University Libraries and the University
of Pennsylvania's Annenberg Rare Books and Manuscript library, selected
texts are catalogued and made available worldwide through major bibliographic
databases.
