The Library of Congress is pleased to announce the release of the online
collection The Atlantic World: America and the Netherlands, available at the
Library's Global Gateway Web site:
http://international.loc.gov/intldl/awkbhtml/awkbhome.html.

Developed by the Library of Congress in cooperation with the National
Library of the Netherlands, this is the first stage of an ongoing project,
The Atlantic World: America and the Netherlands, being produced under a
cooperative agreement signed by the two institutions earlier this year. The
companion site of the National Library of the Netherlands, The Memory of the
Netherlands, is located at:
http://www.geheugenvannederland.nl.

The Atlantic World is available in both English and Dutch, and is intended
for use in schools and libraries and by the general public in both countries
and around the world. It includes more than 70 items totaling some 11,737
images from the collections of the Library of Congress, the National Library
of the Netherlands, and six other Dutch institutions that are cooperating
with the National Library on the project: the Netherlands National Archives,
the Municipal Archives of
Amsterdam, the Plantage Library of the University of Amsterdam, and the
National Maritime Museum. Among the items digitized for the project are a
letter describing the purchase of Manhattan from the Native Americans in
1626, an etching of the Mohawk Sychnecta, early
land grants and patents from Dutch settlers, seventeenth- century maps, and
an early
description of the Dutch colony on the eve of its transfer to the British.

The Atlantic World is part of the Library of Congress's Global Gateway
initiative to create collaborative digital libraries with leading libraries
around the world:
http://international.loc.gov/intldl/intldlhome.html.
Other Global Gateway projects are underway or planned with libraries in
Russia, Brazil, Spain, Japan, France, and Egypt.
