  In this interview, we’re talking about a place that’s home to some of Tennessee’s most important records. But workers at the building are running out of room for new documents. The Tennessee State Library & Archivesis housed in a Nashville building that’s 60 years old, has accessibility issues and far too few public parking spaces. Officials are seeking $90 million for a new location.

Tennessee State Librarian and Archivist Chuck Sherrill joins us to explain how a new building could benefit state residents, and why Chattanooga's State Senator Bo Watson supports the funding.
