Wayne Jones (Editors Atlantic) is a volunteer with the Samuel Johnson Dictionary project, coordinated by Prof. Beth Rapp Young at the University of Central Florida. He currently is assisting with “quotation matching” for Johnson’s dictionary (1755). Johnson’s dictionary was the first in English to use quotations from writers to illustrate each definition. Part of the goal of the project, which is partially funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities in the U.S., is to verify the accuracy of the quotations and to ensure that each one is attributed to the correct author.
