clarification

Don't forget, it's still October! And that means it's still Archives Month!

Now, maybe you're secretly wondering to yourself what the difference is between a library and an archives. Lucky you, I am here to share the difference.

As a fellow archivist once told me, "The books in a library are like whores. You can find the same ones in libraries everywhere. But archives are filled with one-of-a-kind documents that aren't found anywhere else!"

And there you have it.
