VCF doesn't have the space to store newsletters and paperwork beyond the
special limited collection that we have now in the climate controlled
museum space and a limited selection in the warehouse.

We would love to support any volunteer who wants to scan newsletters and
paperwork that isn't available online. If a particular volunteer wants to
scan something, then we can help make that happen. Beyond that we don't
have the bandwidth to coordinate something like this as an ongoing project
at this time. We hope to have something like that in the future. Keep in
mind that there are many others who do this all the time are are better
suited and setup to do such things.
