We have a small collection of historical materials related to the =
California School for the Blind beginning in the late 1800's (the school =
was founded in 1860). Included are pamphlets, programs, articles, =
photographs, etc., as well as antique braillers, books in Moon type and =
Boston Line type, early braille books, etc. Unfortunately, most of the =
materials were literally thrown in boxes with no organization--in fact, =
the materials were about to be thrown away before they were rescued.

My assistant is now trying to organize these materials into some kind of =
order. Any recommendations for companies that sell boxes, photo albums, =
etc. that preserve this type of historical material? Are there any =
listservs that are related to library preservation?

Thanks for your help.
