EcoWorks has a small collection of vintage ephemera (cards, letters, advertisements, photos, etc.) that we'd like help sorting according to quality of its condition, its value, its origin and time-period, etc. There is a tablet on-hand in EcoWorks which could be used to research online for information about each piece, or you can bring your own device into EcoWorks to access online searches. Notes for each piece could be kept either hand-written or in a digital file (Excel, Word). The best days to come in for this project might be Tuesdays 1-6pm, Thursdays 8am-noon, or Fridays 8am-3pm. Weekends may also be an option if necessary.

We''ve packed everything up at the store and most of our materials are now in the new store. Our challenge is going to be unpacking and setting up our new store.
