We never accession, usually photocopy and toss the original (bad
paper, often cut out strangely), and file by subject in subject vertical
files. Works for us. We finally built a people file for those obits.
Unless the donation is considerable or comes in in the mail, I don't
even do paperwork - just effusively say thanks to the donor standing here
- unless there's some other reason to.
