Question for Dr. Vogt:  In your March 17 update to the OHS members you wrote, "The Board of Trustees is actively in discussion with various entities about long-term solutions for the library."  To me, this implies that the library collections could be severed from OHS.  How would you justify divorcing library materials from artifacts that are from the same donor?  For example, the Society holds significant artifacts and 184 boxes of library materials donated by the Yasui family.  The Yasui family's story, Stubborn Twig, has been named a "must read" during Oregon's sesquicentennial.
