A researcher who visited yesterday has asked if he can quote from a memoir
donated to the archive. His deadline to give his own manuscript to his
publisher is monday so he needs an answer fairly soon.
The problem is that i have been unable to contact the writer of the memoir
to ask his permission. I know the writer is still alive but don't know what
terms were agreed if any when he donated his memoir to the archive.
Does anyone have advice or experience from similar situations?
Any suggestion much appreciated!!!
