If you have a story or other piece of the puzzle you'd like to contribute to this project, email
WakullaVolcano@Vashti.net
Submissions will be indexed using the 'Subject:' line of the email.


All materials submitted will be archived unaltered, and, if useful to the site, published on the site and fully credited. Be sure, in turn, to credit your sources. Eventually the raw archives, excluding any unpublishable content, will be made available on the site.
-
This does not mean that submissions become the property of the provider hosting the site or anyone else. Submission implies a permission to publish, not a transfer of intellectual rights, but it also implies a commitment not to withdraw the material at a later date.

Ownership of materials in the archive varies widely - some is public domain and some is not. Be sure it's permissible before you reproduce anything here.
-
Third-party submissions will not be made publicly available if copyright or other restrictions would not allow.
-
And, please, virtual submissions only. Images of books and papers are wonderful, but books and papers themselves belong in a library where they can be properly cared for. If you have something of interest but it's not in virtual form, contact me at michael at vashti.net
-
This project is open and public and not-for-profit, though it is moderated and maintained, at least for now, by me, Michael L. Wright.
