Re: what do you call your archival storage?



We call ours the Rare Book Room - that's what it says on the door. Why, I'm
not sure. Tradition and habit, I suppose. It's sort of frustrating for me.
Fully half of the collections are archival, and I am an archivist, and I
deal lovingly with the ARCHIVAL collections all day long. But when I answer
the phone, I have to say "Rare Books, this is Amy." <sigh>
