Got Magazines? Other (Stock Car Racing) Stuff?

[Martha Kreszock <kreszocmh@xxxx>]

Andrew's posting about the magazine ad seems a good time for me to alert 
everyone to our university's Stock Car Racing Collection. From our 
current publicity:

"The Stock Car Racing Collection is not a museum but a library, 
concentrating on the written, recorded and imaged items that document 
the sport, such as magazines, books, photographs, race programs, 
posters, scrapbooks, clippings, correspondence, technical manuals, 
racing rules, audio and videotapes, etc. Our ultimate goal is to 
comprehensively cover all levels of stock car racing, from local tracks 
to international events."
"Appalachian State University is committed to documenting and preserving 
the history and development of the sport ... We seek to acquire and 
organize all possible informational items on the sport and make them 
available to the public ... Trained staff organize the collection for 
ease of use, store it according to recognized guidelines for optimal 
physical preservation, and assist researchers." 

Collection Librarian Suzanne Wise is a friend and colleague of mine and 
Mick's. (Such a good friend that she let one of our Barracudas live in 
her garage when it got displaced by my to-be-restored 300B.) If you 
have or know of folks who have materials suitable for the collection and 
are interested in donating them, or if you are interested in using the 
collection yourself, contact Suzanne at wisems@xxxx or (828) 
262-2798.

The Stock Car Racing Collection website is at 
http://www.library.appstate.edu/StockCar/index.html .
I'll also bring brochures for the Hospitality Room in Dayton. 

Thanks and 300ly,
