Second Shift
I did my second shift from 9-1 at the Museum research room. I spent my time scanning the pictures I cataloged last time. Again, just about as exciting. I should have taken the advice and volunteered both upstairs and downstairs, but alas…
A rep from a Civil Engineering firm came into the research room to look for documents on a county road, and it’s original width and size. I assumed it was to settle a dispute over how far the County right of way extended into someones property. Goes to show how important cataloging and storing all kinds of documents are. She ended up going into original maps and plansets dated to the early 1900’s, and handling the actual papers. I thought that was really neat, to hold something that old.
Just found out about the switcheroo in staffing at the SLOCHS. Wish Kim the best of luck at her new position. I thought working with her was great.
