FAIRBANKS, Alaska -- British Petroleum is donating $1 million to the University of Alaska Fairbanks to catalog the papers from Ted Stevens' four-decade political career.
Stevens sent more than 4,500 boxes of documents to the university's library. Without the BP grant, the Rasmuson Library told The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner it would have taken decades to sort.
The library plans to hire additional staff to catalog and digitize materials. The library plans an online exhibit and electronic catalog.
