I
recently received the following on the Greene County mail list. If you=20
have any suggestions or advice, pleas post your response to the=20
INGREENE-L(a)rootsweb.com.
Okay Greene County,
How can we save the deteriorating newspapers from 1870's through 1880's
being stored in the Recorders Office at the Courthouse? The clerk said that
they checked into having them scanned by a professional out of state company
and it was going to be way too expensive for the county. These papers are
priceless and getting worse with each day. I asked for them to be laid down
because one of the books was coming out of it's binding. Rae Della agreed
but who knows how long they will stay that way. It is not convenient
because the only place to lay them is on top of the shelves and it is not so
easy to get to them for the clerks. Some pages have already been lost.
Even if there are copies at some other area of the state, it limits local
access to these valuable periodicals. I am open to suggestions. I had
posted a query to the Indiana list but just plain forgot about the Greene
County list until today. Been a little busy lately, haha. Please let's get
our heads together and see what we can do. Thanks for listening and am
looking forward to any and all suggestions on where to do from here.
Sincerely,
Carolyn Earle
