UCI debuts new Southeast Asian Archive web site

URL:  http://seaadoc.lib.uci.edu/index.html

SEAAdoc is an educational resource of the Southeast Asian
Archive at the UC Irvine Libraries focusing on post-1975
refugees and immigrants from Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam and
the communities they have developed in the United States.   It
contains 1,500 visual images and 4,000 pages of searchable
text selected from the Archive to represent a cross section of
our holdings.  SEAAdoc documents the exodus of Southeast Asian
refugees and immigrants from their homelands, their
experiences in Asian refugee camps, and subsequent
resettlement in the United States.  Other materials reveal
cultural, economic, educational, political, and social aspects
of the new Southeast Asian American communities that have
developed, and continue to grow, in the United States.

SEAAdoc has two primary sections: 

READ: A narrative introduction to the field of Southeast Asian
American Studies. This is a useful point of entry for those
unfamiliar with the field.
FIND: Keyword searching and guided browsing of all materials
in SEAAdoc. Some of the areas of greatest strength are
highlighted below.

Several other sections of SEAAdoc are present to help with its
use: teach offers resources to facilitate classroom teaching;
help answers basic questions about the site; and reproduction
provides guidance for ordering copies of images and documents,
as well as in obtaining permission for their re-use.
