Description:Excerpt from The Connecticut Historical Society: Annual Report for the Year 1956 Praise of the staff is not given here as a routine item in my re port. Last summer they Spent not only days, but weeks and months working on damp, smelly, dirty papers, or at least in an unpleasant atmosphere from which they could not escape. They deserve a special vote of thanks. Aside from the flood expense, our operating expenses this past year were kept Within our budget and showed a surplus both in the administrative and property accounts. The outlook for the coming year is such that there is a possibility Of adding another member to our staff. My recommendation to the Standing Com mittee will be that any accumulation Of surplus funds from our operating accounts be added to the Building Fund, where it will be needed on account of the general increase in costs, and that we employ an assistant to the Director. Frequently I have reported my Opinion that we were expecting far too much from him. If any of you are at all familiar with his labors this last year with the ood and the new building, added to his routine work, you will second my recommendation. We have, with some success, collected and preserved, and, as far as our funds would allow, we have published. Our publica tions have Of necessity been limited usually to transcripts of early records. This year we have undertaken an experiment in sponsor ing modern, scholarly writings in our field. By careful selection we hope that the sale Of such works as we publish may replenish a revolving Publishing Fund which can bring great credit to the Society.
