I'm obviously playing catch up on these posts. But for those who are
interested Judi is absolutely right. Crossroads is in a transitional period.
We are trying to define ourselves and to create a publication that
researchers can be proud to publish in. (That is not to say that the many
committees before us have not done an excellent job with the publication.)
The magazine is bi-focal in that we intend to publish at least one feature
article with a Utah focus and at least one feature article with a focus
outside of Utah in each quarterly publication.
In addition, Connie, I have used rolls of microfilm at the FHL that are
simply filmed binders of research much like what you are describing. It may
be worth investigating if they are still filming this type of work.
Cheers,
Christy Fillerup
