Early on, the leaders of the project at Columbia University and the AHA realized that the authors would need additional support and guidance in converting their dissertations into digital monographs. Funding support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation supported a series of workshops in New York, which brought the authors together to discuss their work with each other, staff at the Columbia University Press and the Columbia University Libraries, as well as other experts in the field of digital publishing. The AHA published regular reports about these workshops to publicize the authors' efforts and progress in the project.
