The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) will be open for researchers and for museum visitors tomorrow, June 12, 2018, the day of the NHL Capitals Stanley Cup victory parade. Access to the National Archives Museum is on the Constitution Avenue side of the building, with entrances near 7th and 9th Street, with walk up visitors using the one to the West. The Caps parade is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. at 23rd Street and will proceed down Constitution Avenue to 7th Street. A Caps rally is scheduled for 3 p.m. on the National Mall at 7th Street. If you are in Washington planning to visit our Museum, be aware that the area around the building will be filled with crowds. The research room will be open, as well as well as the Museum. Entry to the research center through the Pennsylvania Avenue business entrance pictured in my last blog post. As are a number of NARA employees, I'm a longtime Capitals fan. On a personal note, I saw T. J. Oshie and Tom Wilson with the Stanley Cup at a restaurant/bar by happenstance Friday evening, when I went to Arlington, Virginia, not far from downtown Washington, to buy a book. (Sometimes, it pays for me to be the book nerd I am.)

Benn Ferriero, a cousin of Archivist David S. Ferriero, played in the NHL and AHL in recent years, including with the San Jose Sharks. David often quotes Wayne Gretzky's famous line about skating where the puck is going to be, especially in the context of modernizing records management and archives access. This from Benn Ferriero also is good on strategic thinking generally, in one of the 2011 National Archives transformation posts at AOTUS blog: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__aotus.blogs.archives.gov_2011_05_02_more-2Dhockey-2Dwisdom_&d=DwIBaQ&c=pZJPUDQ3SB9JplYbifm4nt2lEVG5pWx2KikqINpWlZM&r=b5NZPQUb9_r2rQ3Zd74ATT3aSs9yKyRnJLOhqJvd7fE&m=k8gumiG39JrMrtSClVhliJK1G2Uw9VvlI3IVWJv39BY&s=5kpx1TTJqepynOuU-Te2WCZ1Yg__pXbiavPKP-0Ku4A&e= or short link https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__bit.ly_2sUVcBx&d=DwIBaQ&c=pZJPUDQ3SB9JplYbifm4nt2lEVG5pWx2KikqINpWlZM&r=b5NZPQUb9_r2rQ3Zd74ATT3aSs9yKyRnJLOhqJvd7fE&m=k8gumiG39JrMrtSClVhliJK1G2Uw9VvlI3IVWJv39BY&s=Fghvd56DEuHrGvdat2HbThFSfF4XPeBaNMLWvquCahs&e= If Listserv subscribers are in DC tomorrow to do research or visit the National Archvies museum, we welcome you, as always--just plan ahead taking traffic and transportation challenges into account.
