- Beauty in Stone: The Industrial Films of the Georgia Marble Company
Online Access: On/Off Campus
Two industrials films depicting the Pickens County-based Georgia Marble Company.
- The online collection consists of two short industrial films made by the Georgia Marble Company in the 1950s-1960s that document the company's history, operations, skilled laborers and craftspeople, and the widespread use of their marble, limestone and serpentine products. Georgia Marble Company's use of the industrial film medium served to promote its products by capturing in live action the skill and industry required to create beauty in stone. The first film, New Face on Capitol Hill, depicts Georgia Marble Company's role in the reconstruction of the east facade of the U.S. Capitol building prior to John F. Kennedy's inauguration, and includes footage of president John F. Kennedy at his 1961 inauguration, the former vice president Richard M. Nixon, and Architect of the Capitol J. George Stewart. The second film, Producing America's Buried Treasures, focuses more closely on the company's overall history, its quarrying and finishing facilities in Georgia, Tennessee and Vermont, the breadth of applications for Georgia marble products and related limestone and serpentine industries in Alabama and Virginia. Unique to this film are its highlights of uses for processed marble in products that include roofing material, and turf marking for athletic fields. Both Producing America's Buried Treasure and the New Face on Capitol Hill feature the company's marble quarrying and finishing operations in Pickens County, Georgia; both include pictorial examples of marble-quarrying and marble-shaping machinery, of stone cutters working in the quarry, and of craftsmen sculpting the marble. Many beautiful high-quality products were produced by the Georgia Marble Company, and a number of well-known structures comprised of Georgia marble are interspersed throughout both films. Most notable are the statue Abraham Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial, and the facade of the U.S. Capitol Building, the centerpiece of New Face on Capitol Hill.

- The Bible in English (Chadwyck-Healey)
Online Access: On/Off Campus. GALILEO Password required for off campus access.
21 versions of the Bible in full text, from the 10th to the 20th centuries.
- The Bible in English database contains twenty-one versions of the Bible. In addition to the twelve complete Bibles, there are five New Testament works, two Gospel works and William Tyndale's New Testament, Pentateuch and Jonah translations. The complete English text of each edition is included, with all prefatory matter, notes, running heads and glossaries. In cases where editorial matter is not contemporary with the text (Anglo-Saxon and Wycliffe versions) it is omitted. No attempt has been made to standardize the different structures or different book arrangements within Bibles. Some books, particularly Apocryphal books, will only be present in some Bibles. Verse structures will also vary.
For scholars of English literature, particular attention has been paid to the Renaissance period. All the most significant texts are included from the Tyndale to the King James and the highly influential Coverdale, Bishops' and Geneva Bibles. For researchers in the development of the English language, texts from all eras are included, with emphasis on versions that closely represent its contemporary state. For biblical and theological scholars, texts from the Protestant, Roman Catholic and non-conformist traditions are represented.
The texts were selected under the guidance of the Editorial Board (Professors Gerald Hammond of the University of Manchester and Sylvia Adamson of the University of Cambridge) with the aim of providing a balanced collection of editions covering the whole chronological period and appealing to scholars of of different disciplines.

- The Blues, Black Vaudeville, and the Silver Screen, 1912-1930s: Selections from the Records of Macon
Online Access: On/Off Campus
Records from the 1912 to the 1930s for Macon
- The Blues, Black Vaudeville, and the Silver Screen, 1912-1930s consists of selected correspondence, financial records, contracts, and advertising materials from the theater's records found in the Charles Henry Douglass, Jr. business records at the Middle Georgia Archives, which document the amusements available to Macon's African American population, and the business dealings of this African American entrepreneur from 1912 to the 1930s. The bulk of these selected records feature the period between 1920 and 1929, and describe the sporting events, vaudeville, and films brought to the theater, as well as the efforts to ensure its financial success. Handbills and booking correspondence document Georgia-based fighters such as Tiger Flowers and Texas Tanner who sought to fight at the venue in 1927. Douglass and Ben Stein, a white businessman who assumed ownership of the theater between 1927 and 1929, were affiliated with the Theatre Owners Booking Association (T.O.B.A.), a vaudeville circuit. This gave them access to bring prominent acts to Macon's African American community, such as well-known blues musicians Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith, comedians Butterbeans and Susie, as well as musicals, revues, and sacred theater. When not hosting live acts, the Douglass also exhibited a wide variety of sound and silent motion pictures. Selected records feature race films (movies made specifically for African American audiences) of producers such as the Norman Film Manufacturing Company and Oscar Micheaux. The selections highlight other Southern African American theaters, such as the Palace Theatre in Valdosta, Georgia, Liberty Theatre in Columbus, Georgia, and the Liberty Theatre in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
