Thank you to our volunteers!

Ken and Linda Dulaney, Volunteers

ASP’s longtime supporters Ken and Linda Dulaney donated funds and time to create an archival storage system as well as cleaning out and organizing the safekeeping of over 135 years of ASP Publications. They brought in Claire Rand who volunteered her time and her librarian skills to find locations and companies who could help us archive documents in the future. The ASP now has a dedicated Archive Room holding well protected publications such as Publications of the ASP, Leaflets, Mercury Magazine and special edition publications.
