Rachel begins to prime the archives file cabinets, in all of their orange, green, and olive glory. Why would we want to paint over them, you ask?

The archives themselves, spilled out onto the library's tables while their home is being redecorated.

The cabinets with their first coat of primer. Some of the archives drawers that were already painted are on the floor by the cabinets.

Relaxing over a nice database while the second coat of primer dries.

The artists at work on painting the drawer-fronts.

The finished cabinets, painted a much more pleasing blue, with drawers decorated and the archives back where they belong.
