Archivist Archiving Our Archives

Last week Jessica and Tiffany arrived at the museum. They are archivists volunteering for the next twelve weeks to survey and catalog the archival collections and the library at the museum. New shelving was built in the library this past spring and the new carpeting was finally laid in July.

But since the hurricane, our library books have been stacked out of the way. Or in fact they have been stacked in the way. The added professional help is pushing this project ahead and we have done more work in the archival collections in the past two weeks than we have in many months.
