manuscript materials in Virginia, the newly appointed archivist
interviewed a number of historians and librarians in the State to
discuss the general situation regarding depositories, public and semipublic,
and the possibility of gaining access to private collections. An
outline of the various sources of historical materials was subsequently
drawn up1

to this report, page 8.
and submitted to these same individuals and others within
and outside the State for criticism. Their comments were helpful and
encouraging and it is gratifying to find that, at the end of the year's
work, the outline, with a few additions, has measured up to actual conditions
as found in widely separated counties in the State. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
