Thank You!

I have spent the past week reading through files upon files for research. This can be tiring, but it would be even harder if not for the cataloging efforts of those who work at archives. Anything I find has already been documented and categorized by an archivist, which makes my job of reading and interpreting the material much easier. Since the collections have already been catalogued, I can find material through finding aids and the like, searching for words and ideas that pertain to my research. Thanks to the people at Special Collections, the Musselman Library, and Adams County Historical Society, my work is made possible. The trove of information open to me because of the work of others is invaluable. So, I will take a quick break from researching to say thank you all. Then I will go back to the finding aids to dig up more information so graciously catalogued for all to use.
