Before her death Dorothy decided to leave her very extensive
archive - all her research materials, manuscripts and other papers,
plus Alastair Dunnett's papers - as a bequest to the National
Library of Scotland where it will be known as The Dunnett Archive.
She was of course a trustee of the library and it was where she
did a great deal of her research. A trust has now been set up
to maintain that archive and allow it to be catalogued and accessed
for future generations. This seems to me to be an excellent way
of preserving her memory and utilizing her extensive knowledge
for the benefit of all, and I would urge anyone who wishes to
mark her death or commemorate her life to make a donation to the
trust.
Details of the Trust, set up by Dorothy's lawyer as part of his
firm's own charitable trust - the Princes Exchange Foundation
- are as follows:
Account Name - The Dunnett Archive
Account Number - 00446114
Sort Code - 80-26-02
Bank - Bank of Scotland
Address - 41 South Gyle Crescent, Edinburgh EH12 9BF
