Material from housing industry available

Hello,

I received a phone call this morning from an elderly gentleman who is interested in finding a home for some of his material. I told him I would contact the Civil Engineering Department and the Engineering Library to see if either of your areas is interested.

Mr. Jack Hussman (aged 92) was heavily involved in the building industry from 1972-1992. His involvement was mostly in Ontario, and with the new home warranty program. He has a lot of research and technical material, particularly from the 1980's.

Mr. Hussman is wondering if any area at the UofT could make use of any of his documents. If not, he will simply dispose of them.

If you are interested or have any other ideas, please contact Mr.
Hussman directly at 416-225-0882 or by e-mail "ajh@sympatico.ca". He is very pleasant and knowledgeable, and easy to speak with.

Regards,
Eleanor
