Abstract

This essay, like the contributions by Lois Brown and Jeanne Pfaelzer that were printed in the previous issue, was presented at “Women in the Archives: Using Archival Collections in Research and Teaching on U. S. Women,” a symposium held at the Maine Women Writers Collection at the University of New England in Portland, Maine, 11-14 June 2009. We invite similar essays that reflect on the pleasures and challenges of archival research.
