- Description
- It is the intent of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to transfer funds to the University of Missouri - Kansas City in support of the University's effort to complete the "electronic Thorndike Kibre' (eTK). The eTK project will provide search access to the work via the Internet. Thorndike Kibre and 'TK' are commonly used to reference the work authored by Lynn Thorndike and Pearl Kibre, A Catalogue of Incipits of Mediaeval Scientific Writings in Latin. This is considered by many specialists in medieval studies to be the "single most important research tool for medieval science from 500 AD to 1500 AD". Medicine is an integral component of science during this period. Relevant medical works are included and will be of interest to scholars in the history of medieval medicine. The University of Missouri is the only source capable of performing this task based on this being a continuation of existing services being performed by the University.
