I'm trying to find the best possible home for some dead trees. I have about a foot-high stack of manilla folders containing "early Unix = papers". They have been boxed up for a few decades, but appear to be in = perfect condition. I inherited this collection from Jim Joyce, who = taught the first Unix course at UC Berkeley and went on to run a series = of ventures in Unix-related bookselling, instruction, publishing, etc. The collection has been boxed up for a few decades, but appears to be in = perfect condition. I don't think it has much financial value, but I = suspect that some of the papers may have historical significance. = Indeed, some of them may not be available in any other form, so they = definitely should be scanned in and republished. I also have a variety of newer materials, including full sets of BSD = manuals, SunExpert and Unix Review issues, along with a lot of books and = course handouts and maybe a SUGtape or two. I'd like to donate these = materials to an institution that will take care of them, make them = available to interested parties, etc. Here are some suggested = recipients: - The Computer History Museum (Mountain View, CA, USA) - The Internet Archive (San Francisco, CA, USA) - The Living Computers Museum (Seattle, WA, USA) - The UC Berkeley Library (Berkeley, CA, USA) - The Unix Heritage Association (Australia?)=20 - The USENIX Association (Berkeley, CA, USA) According to Warren Toomey, TUHS probably isn't the best possibility. = The Good News about most of the others is that I can get materials to = them in the back of my car. However, I may be overlooking some better = possibility, so I am following Warren's suggestion and asking here. I'm = open to any suggestions that have a convincing rationale. Now, open for suggestions (ducks)... -r
