Dear Ron: I have done the same type of boo boo, as you know, I nevertheless
found your letter fascinating.  Here are some of my sources.  They should all
come through.  Perhaps we can get together this weekend?  Best wishes, Scott

Dwight B. Heath writes that "A large library and archive on alcohol studies
with an emphasis on Alcoholics Anonymous has been acquired by Brown
University.  A gift from Chester Kirk covered acquisition and cataloguing of
the 15,000 books, pamphlets, photographs, prints, sheet music, audio-and
videotapes that were assembled by Charlie Bishop.  The diverse material will
not be kept separate as a "special collection" but rather will be integrated
with the other holdings in the University's library system, so that
researchers will be able to use the on-line catalogue, and to find other
related materials shelved nearby."
