In 2005, DeeDee Baldwin, an archivist at the Lord of the Rings archive, Parma Eruseen, compiled and edited a keepsake print copy of some of the archive's content into a 234-page paperback titled "The Parma Eruseen: the essay collection". Essays were selected from 2003-2005. The book was 6x9 inches and was perfect bound. A copy of the book is archived in the Texas A&M University fanzine collection.
