National Archives bends on hours

In a posting last month, I ranted about proposed hour changes at the National Archives that would have made it more difficult for the average citizen to access their research facilities.

I am pleased to report that my rants (and those of many others) have been heard, and the bureaucrats who were trying to hold our heritage hostage have agreed to offer extended hours on the following Thursdays and Fridays, (9:00 a.m. - 8:45 p.m); and Saturdays, (8:45 a.m. - 4:45 p.m.):
