DeLand Public Library DSN Collection?

Guy:

It is great to see the DeLand Sun News banner again! But, why not bring the original back to the degree available records would allow? The DeLand Public Library has a wonderful (and rare) collection of microfilm of early editions of the paper or parts of it. These films apparently were passed to the library by Stetson University at some past time. If you could find some way to reproduce that film as a part of your effort I think you would render a very valuable service to the community and to those of us who grew up in the area many, many years ago.

William,

This is a great idea. I get requests for back issues and old articles all the time, and I feel bad that I can't do anything about it. While I don't live in Florida anymore, I am going to have some people I know do some recon at the Library and I will try to get in touch with them and see what (if anything) can be done.
