I did not see a link to write to a librarian (Mahoney Library, 2 Convent Rd., Morristown, NJ 07960-6989) I found the name of the Director: Br. Paul Chervenie Ext: 4233 and the Head of User Services Amira Unver Ext: 4236 My own experience with family diaries donated to the archives at the University of Cincinnati was that they were very willing to help a relative with materials that were donated and are of a special nature. --Noelle Ohio At 03:55 PM 1/14/2004 -0700, Joan Eddy wrote: >My aunt, Helen C.
