Joshua, As a starting point, what about contacting the State Archives in
Sacramento? Their reference phone number, M-F, 9:30 - 4 PM, is
916-653-2246. Surely they can provide professional guidance.

        Hi everyone,
         
        Hope you all survived (surviving?) election night. : ) My firm,
Anshen+Allen, recently got our hands on some valuable/delicate drawings
that we would like to have duplicated and scanned. I'm including the
specifics below. Can any of you recommend a particular person you know
that would be good for this project? We would be interested in getting
cost estimates.
         
        DESCRIPTION: "Joshua, as I mentioned to you I would like you to
access your resources in the library world for a formal archivist to
consult with us to help in duplicating and formally archiving a set of
original blue prints for an early project by Anshen and Allen. The
materials are approximately 17" x 30" and are actual blue prints which
are rolled and not in the best shape. They are from 1939 and we would
like them to be duplicated and scanned (black & white or blue print
duplicate) in which ever process represents the original form best.
There are about 10 blue prints and a few trace sheets that we would like
to have processed. We would like two duplicate sets produced and a
scanned/digital version created in the same effort. I am authorizing you
to spend some time in researching and locating the optimal resource to
help in this effort. This person or organization that you find should
preferrably be able to assist or provide the necessary skills and
abilities to actually duplicate, digitize, and help preserve the
originals as best as possible."
         
        
        Thanks!
         
        -Joshua
