Folk Project Archives Committee Report
Documenting our Place in NJ History
November 2019
Following a hiatus due to my health and a closure of the Rutgers archives for renovation, the committee has resumed its work.
We are currently surveying the existing Rutgers collection to determine what is missing so that we can request specific items from the board and members. The collection was donated in 2005, so any items from the past 14 years are welcome.
PLEASE HELP: Do you have any of these materials? Would you consider donating them?
These are examples. If you have other materials or questions, please contact me.
