This might be two D-OGS programs, one on preservation and another on documentation, including source citation, of documents, photos, objects, etc. We had a program on preservation a few years ago provided by a speaker from the State Archives - time to do it again. Suggestions please for a speaker on the documentation program. While I do not want to stop this discussion, please continue, I would like to remind every one of the original query. While the gentleman that sparked the original query may be very interested in this discussion, his query asked for a recommendation on a book on this subject. Anyone?

I would enjoy a program on the topic for a D-OGS meeting addressing not only preservation, but documentation including source citation, and relevance to the family and so on. I think that learning about ways to photograph and digitize a variety of material so it could be shared with other descendants on CDs, DVDs or in print would be interesting and useful. Am I the only one who might have an interest in this? Carol ************** Get trade secrets for amazing burgers. Watch "Cooking with Tyler Florence" on AOL Food.
