in another thread we are discussing the dispersal and auction of a musician's archive, instruments, etc.

the question came up (Joe) what to do with books, etc?

I recommend sing out resource center, smithsonian folkways
or the "mudcat foundation" create a repository to keep these
legacies safe and available for future generations.

we need a west coast archive ... san francisco folk music club??!!

in seattle the nordic museum has a large room upstairs filled with
the colections and work of scandinavian music and dance by Gordon Tracy.

perhaps there is a room somewhere waiting for folk archives?
