Mary Jane has asked me to move some of the items I want to weed into a box, so that one of the Architecture Professors can look at them and give me permission to weed. This has been probably the most frustrating experience with the collection. I am pretty sure from talking to the students that a good deal of the Stipe Collection is going to stay in the drawers unused; and as there is not much space available, I want to weed items that I feel won't be used at all. These include old deeds of trust for public land use, and many articles from magazines that are cut out. Many of the deeds are not from North Carolina, but are from other states (California, New York), and date back as far as the sixties.
I am only putting about one fourth of the items I want to be weeded in a box.
