The Sharlot Hall Museum Library and Archives in Prescott, Arizona will be closed Tuesday and possibly Wednesday this week. Archivists and volunteers are working to dry out archived items that were soaked by a leak during Sunday's rain storm. The items include a portion of the museum's map collection.
The library's collection of history and genealogy books seems to have little damage. Archivist Ryan Flahive said he expects to be able to "salvage the dampened items with little or no permanent damage to them," according to a press release.
The museum's web site is at http://sharlot.org.
