This is terrific news! As one who has worked in the museum/curation field (studied pre-historic puebloan/cliff-dweller cultures in the southwestern U.S.) and as a DeadHead, I cannot wait to peruse the archives! Wink, a nod and a high five to Eileen. Way to go!

Thank you
Bless you Eileen. You are the stuff of magic(much like my wife). You have alway's really been the eyes of the world. Standing on the moon with a warm and gracious heart, looking over the history with a heart full of love for all you have witnessed. Thank you Eileen, I am so proud of you and what you have done. pk mcvicker

why UC Santa Cruz?
Why would you choose to partner with a campus that has made a cottage industry out of hosting anti-Semitic and anti-Israel "conferences" and speakers to spread these racist ideas? This is way beyond offensive. Good-bye, Dead.net
I won't hold my breath waiting for a refund of my contribution to the Terrapin Station project, but after this announcement they should lower the price of the album by ten bucks, at least.
"All that material, which Law explained would have found a home in the Dead's once-planned Terrapin Station museum, will be housed at the McHenry library at Santa Cruz."

There is your answer. I haven't seen this comment in any other article regarding that UCSC deal. It's been more than a week. Don't bet on them posting the MP-3 of that press conference here either...
