Re: A little archival humour
Christ in the Desert. A group of Carmelite nuns in La Plata, Maryland, are
one of the religious
communities participating in a project called Scriptorium, in which they
type paper documents
into one or more databases.
I just realized that I've never introduced myself: I'm an amateur archivist
and former
professional genealogist who will be applying to MLS programs for admission
this
Fall.
I tell people I come from two long lines of packrats. I've managed to
accumulate a
sizeable personal collection of books, newspapers, and magazines, including
a
still-growing collection on 9/11 and the War. Quite a bit of the
non-9/11&non-War
material has to do with genealogy and local history.
