The general endowment was establsihed, and continues to grow, through funds raised by deaaccesioning duplicate books and manuscript material that is both boring and useless (but, apparently, of at least modest value to someone). Keep your dream alive! There's no better way to bring eager and talented new people into the profession (now that's "sustainable archives") than through the positive experiences they have as interns.
