This exhibit was written and organized by Janet Pearson, a member of the staff of Historical Collections and Services, under the direction of Joan Echtenkamp Klein, the Alvin V. and Nancy Baird Curator for Historical Collections at The Claude Moore Health Sciences Library, University of Virginia. Claudia Sueyras, Normajean Hultman, and Sonya Coleman did preliminary research. Rod Martin and Victoria Meyer scanned items from Historical Collections and the Charles L. Brown Science & Engineering Library. David Moody, with the assistance of Bart Ragon, provided the programming architecture for the Web exhibit. Sonya Coleman contributed to the design elements.

Special thanks to the very helpful staff at the Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library, University of Virginia, as they retrieved dozens of documents and also to the Digital Curation Services staff for their expertise at scanning so many of these documents. The exhibit was inspired by The Mineral Springs of Western Virginia by William Burke, the first item purchased by the Weaver Family Endowed Rare Book and Medical Materials Fund which was generously established by Margaret Carr Weaver Crosson, Evelyn Dabney Weaver Dwyer, and Edgar Newman “Wink” Weaver, Jr., M.D.
