Todd Ellison was the Fort Lewis College Archivist until he chose to use his skills and experience in a different setting. Ellison established the archival program at Fort Lewis College in 1991 in the Center of Southwest Studies and was the key staff person involved in the design and the move into the Center's new multi-million-dollar building. When he began, the College had not a single archival box, and none of the hundreds of collections had been processed archivally or made accessible online at all. His 17 years of work at the College included arranging and describing miles of archival records (a fraction of which are pictured above), as well as organizing more than 900 oral history interviews and describing them on the Web, and producing oral history interviews. As a faculty member at Fort Lewis, he was the only tenured full Professor in the Libraries Department. Now as a Records Administrator for a local government, Ellison has worked in records management at the City of Durango since 2009, and enjoys preserving history and making it come alive and available for anyone and everyone.
