This is a link to a post on The Butler Center for Arkansas Studies blog in Little Rock, Arkansas. It's a great description of what a processing archivist (i.e. ME) does. My archives has collections related to the University and very few personal letters, but it's mostly the same.

"Be a little careful of your library. Do you foresee what you will do with it? Very little to be sure. But the real question is, What it will do with you? You will come here and get books that will open your eyes, and your ears, and your curiosity, and turn you inside out or outside in."
