I think that Shutesbury is a CPA community???  If so, you could use CPA funds to preserve historic documents through digitization.

Hi all,

Shutesbury is in the process of archiving its historical documents and artifacts. We are a relatively small town (Population, 1700) with limited resources.  Would appreciate any advice from others who have undergone this process. Thanks.

Best,
Henry
