Texas Biographies Project
County Coordinator
Guidelines

If you are interested in adopting a county for the Texas Biographies Project, please read these requirements for all Texas County Web Pages.

 

1.  Each county page must include these three links:

2.  The first page of the county web page must include the two logos (above), one each for:

•       the Texas Biographies Project
•       the U.S. Biographies Project

3.  Each county page should have two lists, one each for:

•       Volunteers
•       Books Being Used

5.  Each county should have instructions on how to submit biographies for the county page. A good example should be included in the instructions.

6.  Unless you have your own web page, submit biographies to your Texas state coordinator, Cindy Radway.

7.  If you have your own web page, don't forget to send a copy of each biography to your state coordinator,

Cindy Radway.

7.  Copies of all biographies will be placed in an archive of Texas Biographies so that they will be available to the public for a very long time.

7.  Know what you can post and what you can not.  DO NOT post any materials (other than your own) which are protected by copyright! 

Use materials in these categories:

• Books and biography collections printed prior to 1922, which are generally not protected by copyright and are considered to be in the public domain.
• Photo-static re-prints or duplications of pre-1922 works which are not protected by current copyright.
• Original materials with credit given to the author.

Any posted biographies found to be protected by a copyright of someone other than the submitter must be removed from both Texas and county Biographies pages.
