I suggest we all write him to request that the Library of Michigan, one of the 10th most important genealogical collections in the US, not be dislocated.

this is my dream job!

My wish is that Mr. Ferriero would promote the cause of preserving African American records. Giant steps in healing America's racial divide will emanate from a knowledge of the history and impact of our slave past; and using that knowledge to help heal the continuing rift. For anyone who is interested, www.ourblackancestry.com is a work in progress that hopes to be a beacon for research and www.comingtothetable.com is an effort to bring blacks and whites together at a table of reconciliation -- www.comingtothetable.com.

What does the Archivist of the U S do? This is the first I have ever heard of that job

How different is this from LDS?

James W. Crippen

Archives---Archivist. Can you make the connection? This would be the person in charge of our national archives where we hold our records of the past. There are many district national archives scattered about the nation where all of the census films and other valuable genealogy documents are available. LDS film crews have photographed many of these records. Technically I suppose an Archivist of this magnitude is a manager; sets policy, new budgets, lobbies Congress and other assorted management duties.

Among his varied duties he is responsible for the handling of presidential documentation such as the e-mails Georges' whitehouse could never seem to find.
