Apologies for cross-posting:
Dear All
For your information in regard to the call for volunteers to assist with
the last items still under water at the former archives site in Cologne:
the gist of the reply I had from Max Plassman, who is the person you
need to contact if you wish to volunteer with the rescue work (contact
address: [log in to unmask]) is that there still about 10% of
the collections to be lifted from beneath the ground water level. To be
able raise them safely, [they] have to build a wall in the ground. This
will hopefully be finished in December, when work will begin again.
Pam
