Annnnd, it's on!




Yesterday the collection that I've been working on for over a year, the Morehouse College Martin Luther King Jr. Collection (no comma, for some reason Morehouse doesn't like it), came open for research. The finding aid is online and we've gotten some nice press from the local paper, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution and the local NPR affiliate, WABE. I was particularly happy about the call from WABE. I'm a big NPR nerd and it was cool to answer the phone and hear a reporter's name that I actually know (and like), Odette Yousef.

Now if I can just get through the next 9 1/2 months...Anybody need an archivist in October?
