Thank you, everyone, for all these helpful suggestions.  I'm following up with a few institutions and am pleased about the positive response so far.

Yet another great place for them would be Hagley Museum and Library, Christina.  If you’d like me to put you in touch with someone there, let me know.

Hi Christina-

 

Many good suggestions already!  Another possibility is to contact curators in the Space History Division at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum…

 

Paul Ceruzzi

SIGCIS member and curates history of computing, communication, guidance, navigation, control

https://airandspace.si.edu/staff/paul-ceruzzi

 

 

Martin Collins

Curates history of civilian satellites

http://airandspace.si.edu/staff/martin-collins

 

Might be a good mix of interest/expertise/fit given Hoversten’s contribution to IP via satellite. 

 

Best-

Eric Hintz

Hi list,

 

I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions about a possible (history of computing?) archival home for the papers of Estil Hoversten, who contributed to satellite communications and Internet protocol research (PhD in EE from Iowa State, then faculty at MIT and later in industry at Hughes).  Please email me if you have any thoughts or leads.  

 

Thank you!
