Response from Clerk of Ct, Dale Atkins ----- Original Message ----- From: Dale N. Atkins To: Sally Gilmore Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 5:33 PM Subject: RE: Notarial Archives Research Center Thank you for your e-mail and your concern. I am fighting to keep the NA open by seeking other sources of revenue such as State, City and federal funds. I am also looking at expenditures to cut anything that we don't need and get better prices from vendors. I will not make any decisions without gathering information and suggestions on funding. I will also continue to keep the public informed and will not make any decisions without input from the public.

Atkins Subject: Notarial Archives Research Center Ms. Atkins: Please do not close the Notarial Archives Research Center and let us know how individuals can aid in keeping it open. We have lost so much of our culture already, we can't lose any more. I realize tough decisions need to be made in these hard times, but we all need to fight to keep the Center open. Thank you for your consideration Sally S. Gilmore Metairie, LA 888-3740
