plaques and trash
The anecdotes regarding irate donors and archives' discards
reappeared from the trash should serve as a reminder to all of us
(archivists). Whether electronic or magnetic tapes, manuscripts,
images, or artifacts, items should never be accessible again after
failing the appraisal process. The type or funding of the repository
doesn't matter: there are multiple ways to assure destruction.
