[Nhcoll-l] Papers that support collections

[Carla Cicero]

Hi Crystal - The AOU Collections Committee has a web page that lists a
number of papers:

http://www.aou.org/committees/collections/useful_papers.php

This is out of date, and our plan is to update the entire committee website
next year. But some of these may be useful.

If you do compile a list, can you please send that to me and I'll make sure
to add them.

Best,
Carla
