Re: [ARSCLIST] Any feedback on the status of Hogan Archive at Tulane Universi...

In response to Cary's message, I can tell you that a number of archival and
museum organizations are currently discussing the best ways to band together
to provide assistance.  Earlier today I forwarded a message to the ARSC
board that was posted by (Michael Friend?) on the Association of Moving
Archivists listserv, outlining a number of steps that the organization could
take to help salvage film collections. We will be looking for ways that ARSC
can provide assistance as well, and I welcome ideas from members. I hope to
post a follow up on this list sometime next week after I have more
information both from the board and from our sister organizations.
