The page presentation framework of the Booker T. Washington papers is designed to provide researchers worldwide with searchable access to the thousands of pages comprising the fourteen volumes, most of which are out of print. Adapted from the National Academy Press's Open Book framework, this framework allows searching down to the page level, provides sorting of search results chronologically, enables easy navigation across multiple volumes, and allows page-by-page local printing (via PDF) of every page.

The BOOKER T. WASHINGTON Papers conference of editors held in New Orleans. Most southern editors, according to the article, were opposed to Negro suffrage. ~ Possibly Charles W. Greene, farm manager and teacher of agriculture at Tuskegee Institute. To John Uri Lloyd Tuskegee, Ala. [April Osgood My dear Sir: Your letter of April lath is called to my attention upon my return to Tuskegee. I am very glad that you have found my book, ''The Future of the American Negro'' of some interest. I believe with you that no odium attaches to the name ''Negro,'' but I very much wish that authors could see their way clear to spell it with a capital N since it is a race name the same as Filipino, Chinese, Indian, etc. tBooker T. Washington] AL Copy Con. ~77 BTW Papers DLC. To Francis Jackson Garrison Tuskegee, Ala., May 2, 1900 Dear Mr. Garrison: We had a most delightful visit yesterday from the Clarks. Our only regret is that they could not remain with us except during a day and night. We had planned to have them with us at least three days but they thought they must hurry on. They went from here to Charleston. I gave them letters of introduction to several friends there. We had the whole school assemble in the afternoon and sing some plantation songs to them. Both Mr. and Mrs. Clark spoke most feelingly and helpfully to the school. We shall always remember their visit with the greatest satisfaction. I am most grateful to YOU for the privilege of becoming acquainted ~ ~ 1 ~ with such excellent people. Yours truly, TLS Francis I. Garrison Papers NN-Sc. 492 Booker T. Washington
