Very, very exciting news:

Brown University and the University of Tulsa have partnered to digitize a huge catalog of modernist journals and magazines dating from 1890 to 1922.  The list includes wonderful things like The Little Review (which initially serialized Joyce’s Ulysses), Poetry, Blast, and many, many more.

The preservation scans have also been made into PDFs and are available to download for free.  You can load up your e-reader or harddrive with free early 20th century poetry and fiction goodness, in its original context.

On a personal research note, I’m more than ecstatic because the project includes Scribner’s Magazine, where Edith Wharton’s The Custom of the Country was serialized in 1913.
