Today we spent most of the day preparing permission to publish forms. One of the forms we prepared was again for some of Will Counts's images of the desegregation of the high school in Little Rock. They're definitely popular images. We also located an image of an Indiana University assistant coach for someone, as well as an image of a track and field athlete from Indiana University who was in the Olympics in 1904. However, the only image we had of this athlete was a scan from a yearbook photo, which isn't very good quality. Since this image will be used in one of the sports exhibits, we're hoping to find a better one. Tomorrow we will try to identify any living descendants of the athlete so we can contact them to find out it they might have photographs of him which we could scan.
