Dear colleagues,
I am looking for a research assistant to gather and scan some resources that are held in an archive about an hour north of NYC.
These resources are all in English, and I am able to provide a fairly detailed idea of what I am looking for. I do not know how much will be in the archive, but suspect that the whole task could be completed in one or two day trips.
