Future Mapping Projects
The George Eliot Archive will continue to add more maps. Specifically, under construction is an interactive map of George Eliot's first trip to Germany in 1854, to be launched in the fall of 2024.
These additional projects offer opportunities for collaboration and crowd-sourcing, so please get in touch with Bev at bdr0032@auburn.edu if you are interested in contributing to a George Eliot geospatial project.
