Identifying materials that will be of value to the staff and continuing to provide that information. Staffing needed to track down leads relating to any part of the “early years” circulation records, missing promotional materials. Contacting alumni staffers (past marketing, art and production departments) as well as past fans/collectors who may be interested in contributing their collections through a donor/endowment program.
