      Hello, My name is David Olson and I am a reporter at The Press-Enterprise in Riverside. I am writing a story on the National Archives' efforts to promote its collection through social media. If you found out about the archives and its collection through Facebook, Tumblr or Twitter -- or became aware that there is a regional center in Riverside -- could you please call me at 951-368-9462 or email me with your phone number at dolson@pe.com? I am writing on a deadline today (Friday, June 29) so I would like to talk with folks soon. Sorry for the late notice! Thanks. David Olson

      Does anyone know how long the crane was left in the middle of the Ziggurat building before they got it out? This was posted on another of my friend's pages with a photo. Wondered if any of you had a quick answer?

      Kerry Bartels - great presentation today which I watched remotely on the live streaming webinar. The syllabus was late in arriving electronically so a little difficult to follow the links... but still very worthwhile (especially now that I can follow the syllabus).

       While Japanese-Americans were held in internment during World War II, their farming equipment was left behind. The United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) War Board decided to make this equipment available for public sale to aid in food production, and internee would be reimbursed at what the USDA War Board deemed to be fair market value. But in this letter, Henry H. Nishizu refuses the sale. He had already committed the equipment to an "American friend" who had taken over the Japanese-owned farms and needed the equipment to run the farms, and Nishizu argues that this is far more helpful to the war effort than a sale. This letter is from our colleagues at the National Archives at Riverside, who are observing Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month by sharing documents from their holding relating to Asian American history. You can see more documents on their Tumblr blog: http://riversidearchives.tumblr.com

       In honor of Asian-Pacific American Heritage month, the National Archives at Riverside will be paying tribute to the many generations of Asian-Pacific Americans who have enriched our nation’s history. Highlighted holdings include records relating to enforcement of the Chinese Exclusion Act and the Japanese internment and relocation. Do you know someone who was affected by these policies? http://riversidearchives.tumblr.com/

    October is Archives Month!

    In Washington, the state has taken the theme of "LAW & ORDER IN THE ARCHIVES: Crooks, Cops and Courts." The month-long event, part of a national celebration, is co-sponsored by the Washington State Archives. Stat...
    e penitentiary guards, Supreme Court justices, mugshot books, county clerk records, and even prisoner shackles are all documented in photographs, court records, artifacts and ephemera in institutions across the state.

    State Archivist Jerry Handfield says, "Thanks to our main State Archives office in Olympia and our branches throughout Washington, people now and in the future can learn about the people, events and stories that make up the fabric of our state’s interesting past. Whether it’s a famous Washingtonian or someone’s own family history, Archives can help direct you toward the documents and resources that will help you in your search."
