mnemonic@eff.org (Mike Godwin) (04/14/91)
Our new Director of Communications, Gerard Van Der Leun, asks the following: Information is only powerful if you have ready access to it. At the EFF office, we have lots of information -- much of it on disk and in the comp.org.eff groups. This is readily accessible. However, we are facing a print/tape/and paper glut of major proportions that grows worse by the day. Clips, magazines, newspapers, and other hardcopy material keeps rolling in and while there is always someone who knows where something is you often have to depend on the presence of these living data-bases to find anything. Not the best situation for a growing organization. Especially one that depends on volunteer effort and has a tiny staff. What we need is a full library/archive system installed in the office. Does anyone here know of a librarian located in the Boston/Cambridge area that might be willing to help us set up an EFF Library/Archive? --Gerard Van Der Leun -- Mike Godwin, (617) 864-0665 | "Language is a virus mnemonic@eff.org | from outer space."
