Each chapter is basically an article and two panel papers.
Culture, collecting, scholarship, and power/Specific efforts to preserve US/Modern ramifications
The struggle continues, but I think that I have turned a corner in actually looking at more libraries and more issues. That will free me up to talk about specific cultural studies ideas and apply them to specific examples. I run the risk of just having a series of case studies. But I think that this will help to keep it interesting. One thing I would like to track is opposition to Communism across the whole century. That way I can talk about Nicaragua and Armenia without it being too forced. Also, I won’t be locked in to archival study too badly.
