Washington Post Shenandoah National Park Archive Article



In today's (March 6) Washington Post "Metro" section (p. B1) appears an
article "Anger in Appalachia: Researchers Fighting to Open Records on
1930s Shenandoah Park Resettlement."  The problem with reopening?
"Lacking $50,000 a year for a full-time archivist, the park (Shenandoah
National Park) has not set an opening date for the archive, and
officials concede it could be years away."  Sad.  View the complete
