From: marcie.herman@metroparks.com Sent: Monday, November 09, 2009 11:13 AM Subject: Great Ships of the Great Lakes Program at Lake Erie Metropark Great Ships of the Great Lakes at Lake Erie Metropark Join nationally recognized lecturer, model maker and marine historian Keith Steffke for a fascinating look at some of the great ships that have plied and died on the Great Lakes at our special presentation "Great Ships of the Great Lakes," on Sunday, November 22 at 2 p.m., at the Marshlands Museum and Nature Center of Lake Erie Metropark, in Brownstown. Steffke will focus on the many ships that were made at the legendary Great Lakes Engineering Works - a River Rouge/Ecorse (Detroit River) shipyard that operated from 1902 to 1961. The Edmund Fitzgerald is perhaps the best known vessel produced at this facility, but there were many others. Each ship has a story to tell and Mr. Steffke will relate some of the more fascinating tales. This November marks the 50th anniversary of the end of commercial shipbuilding in the Downriver area. The launching of the freighter "Arthur B. Homer" on November 7, 1959 spelled the end of 135 years of shipbuilding tradition on the Detroit River. Her builder, the Great Lakes Engineering Works, was founded in 1902 and finally ceased operations in 1961. This legendary shipbuilder was noted for the great variety and number of bulk freighters, tugs, car ferries and luxurious passenger ships they constructed at their River Rouge/Ecorse shipyard over the course of a half century. Steffke will deliver an entertaining program filled with anecdotes about this renowned builder of ships such as the ill-fated "Edmund Fitzgerald", among other famous vessels. Using unique prints, photographs, artifacts, and other rare archival items, Steffke documents the rise and fall of the last Downriver shipbuilder. Travel back to a time when the rattle of the riveting gun and the tremendous splash of a launching hull could be heard along the Detroit River! Fee: $2 per person. Pre-registration required.

What gives? I remember Proquest used to have a way to buy packages of articles from various papers like the Chicago paper. I don't understand why they aren't doing the same thing with the Detroit Free Press. Not being able to get free access is one thing, but not being able to get any access??

Our library doesn't carry the full line of Proquest newspapers, just the obits database; and our college carries only some of the newspapers, not all. In this economnic environment, libraries don't have much money to throw around, and I'm guessing it's priced prohibitively. Why did they bother to announce it but not give any means of access!?!!?!! Guess I know why -- they want us to go lobby our libraries to spend more on Proquest?? How annoying and ineffective. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
