SPX Establishes Collection At The Library Of Congress

I'm working entirely from a just-dropped press release, and while that's always a danger I thought this announcement cool enough for exception's sake: Bethesda's Small Press Expo is establishing a Small Press Expo Collection at The Library Of Congress, working with curators to establish a bunch of works at the Library that show off the diversity of the independent comics scene that the Expo serves. Since the Library already has access to copyrighted works that are submitted for collection, this specific effort will include self-published work such as mini-comics and tabloid anthologies. The only works considered will be from cartoonists that attend the show or those that are Ignatz Award nominees -- those nominees will receive automatic inclusion. The Expo's web site will be digitally archived.

I'll jump link to the full press release when it gets posted somewhere. Until then, you can download this word document version if you're interested in as much information as they've put out there: spxloc.doc.
