The Sir John Herschel Collection
The preparation of the print Calendar of the Correspondence of Sir John Herschel (Michael J. Crowe ed., David R. Dyck and James J. Kevin assoc. eds, Cambridge, England: Cambridge Univ. Press, 1998, viii + 828 pp) which was funded by the National Science Foundation, took ten years. It was accomplished by a team of seventeen professors, visiting scholars, graduate students, advanced undergraduates, and staff working at the University of Notre Dame.
The first online version of Calendar was created in 2009 by Dr Marvin Bolt and Steven Lucy, working at the Webster Institute of the Adler Planetarium, and it is that data that has now been reformatted for incorporation into Ɛpsilon.
Further information about Herschel, his correspondence, and the editorial method is available online here: http://historydb.adlerplanetarium.org/herschel/?p=intro
No texts of Herschel’s letters are currently available through Ɛpsilon.

Is sorry that CB's paper could not be printed in the recent issue of the R.S.P.T. Discusses problem in analysis. [Note dated [1816-]2-7]: has been waiting for Mr. Deighton's estimate of printing.
Has received parcel and letter. Has not had much time to give attention to the manuscript yet. On the R.S.L. and the printing of long papers. Hopes to have CB's translation of S. F. Lacroix soon. Regarding one of his equations.
Regrets he cannot assist CB over the position at East India College. William Herschel has less influence over Sir Joseph Banks than CB thinks. Regarding his paradoxes in functional equations.
Has had little leisure to write. Been working on S. F. Lacroix. Regarding the appendix to Lacroix. Is going to the Isle of Wight. Hopes to write a work on analytics. Has heard that CB is writing articles for the journal of the Royal Institution. Would like to write articles for an encyclopaedia.
Leaving Cambridge shortly, probably for good. Will be under his father's directions observing the stars. Has sent the appendix to S. F. Lacroix. Regarding JH's error in the printing of an equation. Gives an equation for CB to comment on.
Has received a copy of their book. Sending a copy of his own paper printed in the R.S.P.T. Has prepared the way for CB's book on examples. Has been examining [John?] Spence's manuscript.
