The next program in the Virginia Heritage Resource Center's Mining the
Treasure House lecture series will be held at noon on Tuesday, 20 May
2008 in the conference rooms adjacent to the lobby of the Library of
Virginia at 800 East Broad Street in downtown Richmond. The speaker will
be Trenton Hizer, Senior Finding Aids Archivist at the Library of
Virginia. He will discuss the newly published Guide to the Personal
Papers Collections at the Library of Virginia. The Guide serves as an
introduction to more than 5,700 diverse collections that cover more 400
years of Virginia history. Hizer will discuss the compilation of the
volume and several of the many collections described in it, ranging from
Thomas Yong's 1634 letters describing Virginia to blogs commenting on
and analyzing the 2005 Virginia elections.
