Hi gang! Happy Easter!!
I think we should all make a concerted effort to make sure that the
libraries and the Gen/Hist Socs. get copies of the materials we are working
so hard to make public. I am suggesting that we all try to encourage them
either to print out the material from the websites, bind it and shelve it
for their patrons, or to get someone form their organization to do so. I
know a lot of libraries are not online, but if we could talk to the local
organizations and ask them to find some of their members to do it, it would
really benefit all -- there are a lot of genealogists who are not online,
yet.
I cannot afford to copy and mail to all the libraries in my area, but I'm
sure there are enough people who are willing to take at least one file and
get it out to them. Some of the libraries or other organizations have the
money do do it themselves, to.
