Hola Ranchos members:

Check out this link:  http://www.adabi.org.mx/adabi.htm

This is a group in Mexico City that was formed to preserve the 
Historical Archives and Libraries of Mexico.  Organizations are sent an 
invitation to petition for project funding.  They are required to 
complete the project or return the funds to Adabi.  The projects range 
from $5,000 pesos to 12,500 pesos (that's roughtly $500-$1,200 US) per 
project.  One project in Durango was to scan, catalog and create a 
database.  ADABI donated the scanner, the computer and a desk.  The 
recipient committed to completing the project within 10 months.  They 
show other projects where old maps have been restored, etc.
