<strong>HAGLEY</strong> <strong>MUSEUM</strong> <strong>AND</strong> <strong>LIBRARY</strong> <strong>•</strong> <strong>ANNUAL</strong> <strong>REPORT</strong> <strong>2003</strong>
This year’s annual report features images from Hagley’s exhibit,<br />
“Machine, Monument, & Metropolis: New York’s Pennsylvania Station.”<br />
A century ago, the Pennsylvania Railroad, built an enormous station on<br />
Manhattan Island. The centerpiece of the largest private construction<br />
project of its time, the station brought together innovations in architecture,<br />
urbanism, engineering, energy, and safety and made them visible in the heart<br />
of America’s largest city.<br />
Beyond the waiting rooms, travelers entered the<br />
Concourse, a soaring space that reached from the tracks<br />
below to the sky above. Here one lined up to be checked<br />
through the gates, and here one arrived in the Big City. This<br />
was the welcome that awaited jaded natives, tourists, and<br />
ambitious young folks from small towns across America.<br />

President’s Report<br />
With great pleasure, I submit to you the Annual Report<br />
for <strong>2003</strong> of the Eleutherian Mills-Hagley Foundation.<br />
Without doubt, the signal accomplishment of the year<br />
was the creation of an ambitious, well-thought-out strategic<br />
plan to guide us through the next few years. These years<br />
will see some necessary changes at Hagley, but the Board of<br />
Trustees is confident in our moderate, reasoned approach to<br />
things new and different. We believe that our business library<br />
and archives has become one of the premier research<br />
institutions in America, and we intend to keep it that way.<br />
For the next few years, we will focus greater attention on the<br />
museum as we conduct a major “reimagining” process that,<br />
we hope, will bring a new level of excitement and<br />
interpretation to our exhibits and programs.<br />
As you will note in Hagley’s financial statement, we<br />
continue on a sound fiscal footing, the endowment having<br />
nearly recovered to the levels of the late 1990s. The Trustees<br />
and I wish to thank our sterling Investments Committee<br />
members for an extraordinary job of protecting Hagley from<br />
major losses and for positioning us for the economic recovery.<br />
These members are: Edward J. Bassett, H. B. King III, E.<br />
Matthew Brown, Edward B. du Pont, and Eugene D.<br />
Crittenden, Jr.<br />
I would also like to thank our top managers—George<br />
Vogt, director; Dan Muir, deputy director for museum<br />
administration; and Terry Snyder, deputy director for library<br />
administration—for managing an effective planning process
and bringing to the Board a fine strategic plan on<br />
schedule.<br />
Finally, I wish to thank my fellow Trustees<br />
for the honor of serving Hagley as president for<br />
the past year. The pace has been brisk, but the<br />
rewards of serving have been considerable.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Blaine T. Phillips<br />

Director’s Report<br />
This was the Year of the Plan—Hagley’s<br />
strategic plan for the next three years. Creating<br />
it was a nine-month process of intensive<br />
research, debate, and evaluation, leading<br />
eventually to unanimous approval by the Board<br />
of Trustees in October. We spent much time<br />
reviewing Hagley’s mission and experimenting<br />
with long, short, and medium-size versions. In<br />
the end, we settled on a concise mission<br />
statement that reflects actuality after decades of<br />
institutional growth and change, and we also<br />
George Vogt<br />
produced several paragraphs of elaboration that<br />
will be useful in brochures, grant applications,<br />
and public presentations.<br />
The mission statement, after editing ceased, is: Hagley<br />
Museum and Library collects, preserves, and interprets the<br />
unfolding history of American enterprise. The statement<br />
springs from fifty years of Hagley’s evolution. At inception,<br />
the founders viewed Hagley as an industrial version of<br />
Colonial Williamsburg, with the focus being the du Pont<br />
family and the DuPont Company from 1802 to 1921, when<br />
powder production in the mills ended.<br />
Although the initial plans assumed that Eleutherian<br />
Mills, the enlarged 1803 family home, would eventually<br />
become part of the museum, it was not opened to public tours<br />
until the 1960s. The gift of the residence, with its 1930s<br />
colonial revival interiors and a Renaissance ruin garden built<br />
on the site of the original powder works, stretched Hagley’s<br />
interpretational timeline forward by more than a decade and,<br />
one could argue, backward by a few centuries. The other<br />
major change was the creation of a research library and<br />
archives at Hagley, based on P. S. du Pont’s business library.<br />
The collection quickly grew to include many family papers,<br />
the DuPont Company’s archives, and eventually business<br />
records of all types and periods from the Delaware Valley and<br />
beyond. We stretched again. Today, with more than a
Aerial view of New York City<br />
6
thousand corporate collections, a very large library, and many<br />
other related collections, Hagley is the preeminent center for<br />
research into the history of American enterprise and one of<br />
the best historic sites in America for telling that story, using<br />
the du Pont family, the water-powered mills, and the mill<br />
workers as examples.<br />
The strategic plan focuses on various things that we need<br />
to accomplish or begin before 2007. For some of these, we<br />
require approximately $750,000 to<br />
The Penn Station chief operator<br />
underwrite a series of important studies<br />
supervised a staff of six operators in to help us develop and market the<br />
the station’s own telephone exchange museum effectively and to overhaul our<br />
in this upstairs room off the main computer systems and Internet presence.<br />
concourse. This view by Philadelphia During the last quarter of the year, we<br />

around 1911.<br />
excellent prospects for the rest.<br />
7<br />
Collections Stewardship<br />
One of the plan’s most significant aspects is the concern for<br />
good stewardship of what we already possess. With dozens<br />
of historic structures on the grounds, we recognize our
obligation to preserve them. We must set priorities and make<br />
difficult choices about levels and styles of maintenance.<br />
Buildings one can visit clearly take precedence over those that<br />
are “off the tour,” but we strive to keep all of our buildings<br />
in sound condition. This requires<br />
periodic, thorough preservation surveys This is a view of Penn Station’s Seventh<br />
to assess deterioration and establish a Avenue and 33rd Street facades.<br />
hierarchy of maintenance work. Under<br />
the strategic plan, we will set in motion a full survey of all<br />
historic buildings.<br />
We enlisted the help of several DuPont engineers in<br />
updating a 1987 engineering study of the Crowninshield<br />
Italian ruin garden, which was built over the exploded<br />
remains of the company’s original furnaces and feeder<br />
tunnels, leaving many uncharted voids. They reported late<br />
in the year that the gardens are unsafe and would require<br />
approximately $3 million in additional tests and safety<br />
improvements just to allow further research into the costs of<br />
restoration. Deeming other needs more pressing, the Board<br />
of Trustees ordered the garden fenced to protect visitors and<br />
8
staff and deferred further action. Never underestimate the<br />
challenge of owning a ruin!<br />
Our living collections also demand maintenance, as our<br />
arborists and gardeners can testify. Though not well known,<br />
Hagley’s flora are significant. There are more than 100 species<br />
of trees on the property, making Hagley a true arboretum. In<br />
addition, Hagley is host to a variety of endangered species.<br />
The plan calls for field surveys and improvements to a<br />
database used in managing our living<br />
resources.<br />
Penn Station’s General Waiting Room<br />
And, of course, the paper and artifact was at the center of the building. It was<br />
collections of the library, archives, and 150 feet high, as big as the nave of<br />
museum have their own special St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.<br />
stewardship issues. The digital age is<br />
here, and we know that users of these collections want more<br />
and better access to our holdings via computers. This poses<br />
a host of questions about digitizing images of museum<br />
objects, historical photographs, and even entire manuscript<br />
collections and posting them on our web site in searchable<br />
formats. Perhaps the real challenge is devising an intelligent<br />
policy for all of Hagley’s programs. The strategic plan charters<br />
a collection committee to deal with broad policy issues and<br />
develop an overall digital strategy. Allied to this is the<br />
certainty that many of the new collections we will acquire in<br />
coming years will be mostly digital in format: CDs, DVDs,<br />
tapes, computer memory devices, and the like. To deal with<br />
this phenomenon without becoming a museum of outmoded<br />
playback technologies, we will explore hardware and software<br />
needs and consult with our corporate depositors and donors.<br />
The challenge of maintaining perpetual access to gifts of nonpaper<br />
records is at present the most difficult strategic problem<br />
for archivists, librarians, and administrators of research<br />
institutions. Hagley will also review its future space needs for<br />
books, museum objects, and records, taking into account the<br />
need for controlled environments for special collections.<br />
Security<br />
Closely allied to stewardship is the matter of security. The<br />
planning committee and Board of Trustees agreed that we<br />
require a full review of security with an eye toward both<br />
immediate and long-term needs. Hagley’s large grounds and<br />
multiple points of access pose significant challenges in<br />
maintaining good security. Our priority is the safety of staff<br />
members and visitors, with collections security a close second.<br />
10
11<br />
Organizational Development and Communications<br />
The planning team sought the comments and concerns<br />
of Hagley’s staff members at various points in the process,<br />
and our colleagues were candid in suggesting some changes.<br />
Accordingly, the plan gives great emphasis to improving<br />
communications, horizontally as well as vertically, within the<br />
organization. A new performance evaluation system, a<br />
redesigned orientation program for new employees, and better<br />
training of supervisors are all changes we expect to<br />
implement in the first year of the plan.<br />
Information Technology<br />
Computers—our blessing and bane—are central to the<br />
new world of libraries. One can argue convincingly that the<br />
three most important developments in the history of<br />
information were: Gutenberg’s invention of movable type,<br />
which changed books from unique objects into items of mass<br />
production; the advent of public lending libraries; and the<br />
creation of the Internet. If today’s students begin their<br />
research—and all too frequently end it—with a visit to the<br />
Internet, then our world of libraries and museums must adapt.
Parents, too, are using the Internet to plan vacation travel by<br />
previewing museums and other attractions before deciding<br />
whether or not to visit. We are proceeding immediately to<br />
upgrade our computer system, plan enhancements to our<br />
Internet services, and develop an Intranet.<br />
Visibility and Marketing<br />
Most of America’s museums and historic sites are still<br />
suffering attendance declines that began<br />
more than a decade ago. Hagley’s The Pennsylvania Railroad’s<br />
slippage has been less severe than “Blue Ribbon” trains ran overnight,<br />
others’ but no less concerning. Today, leaving Penn Station in the late<br />
Americans have so many leisure-time afternoon or evening and arriving<br />
options that we hardly know which way in the early morning.<br />
to turn. On an average weekend, the<br />
once nuclear family splits to the computer, cable television,<br />
soccer and ballet practice, the garden, a professional sports<br />
event, a church committee, and more. Our lives are so tightly<br />
wound, it seems, that some local participants in focus groups<br />
have told us they are unlikely ever to visit a museum like<br />
Hagley unless they book time on a vacation. Our sister<br />
institutions’ experiences confirm that attendance will<br />
continue to decline unless museums market effectively and<br />
enhance their programming. In short, we need to begin<br />
thinking like for-profit businesses that pay close attention<br />
to customers’ changing wants and needs.<br />
Our plan lays out several strategies, starting with basic<br />
research. A visitor survey late in the year contained a few<br />
surprises and some welcome news. For example, Hagley’s<br />
holiday season patrons are unlike those of typical historical<br />
museums and sites. They are older, better educated, and more<br />
affluent. In short, they match the visitor profile for art<br />
museums. They love what they see at Hagley: our overall<br />
satisfaction rating is a 6.7 on a 7 point scale. But many<br />
reported that they were “surprised” by what they found at<br />
Hagley, which indicates to us that our marketing should<br />
emphasize the variety and quality of experiences available<br />
at Hagley.<br />
Over the next two years, Hagley will conduct additional<br />
market research, develop and implement a marketing plan,<br />
commit additional funds to marketing, create a Hagley<br />
Ambassadors program to formalize a strong word-of-mouth<br />
effect, and undertake a “brand” development program.<br />
12
Improved Programming<br />
The object of our marketing is to bring more people to<br />
Hagley to enjoy the grounds, exhibits, and special events. Our<br />
fine museum staff pointed out during the planning sessions<br />
that the museum operates under several handicaps. First,<br />
some of the fixed exhibits are decades old and lack the<br />
interactive features that young visitors enjoy. Second, our<br />
“orientation” space for casual visitors as well as groups is<br />
limited to part of the small Henry Clay<br />
Mill lobby. Third, our space for changing Volunteers worked day and night<br />
exhibitions is no more than 2500 square during the weeks leading up to the<br />
feet on the second floor of the museum exhibit opening.<br />
building—certainly not enough to<br />
accommodate most traveling exhibitions for history<br />
museums.<br />
In discussions of the museum’s dilemma, the planning<br />
group realized that now was the time for an extensive<br />
rethinking of the museum. We decided to follow the visitor<br />
survey with two other projects, one a land-use study to see<br />
how we might use the property and buildings under different<br />
interpretive models, and the other a major project called<br />
“Reimagining the Museum,” which will engage most of the<br />
museum staff and others in devising new ways to excite,<br />
challenge, and educate our visitors.<br />
The plan also calls for creation of an institution-wide<br />
Program Committee, with authority to review and approve all<br />
existing and new educational offerings. The effect of this will<br />
be to make certain that events are mission-related and<br />
appropriately budgeted. Not all will make money for Hagley,<br />
nor should they, but we will understand at the outset which<br />
programs we are subsidizing and to what extent.<br />
Visitor Service Improvements<br />
Besides the cramped orientation center and inadequate<br />
gallery space in Henry Clay Mill, we lack adequate facilities<br />
for a variety of visitor needs, even at existing levels of<br />
attendance. The gift shop is so small that it cannot<br />
accommodate a full bus load of people, and visiting it requires<br />
a detour from the normal visitor route to and from the<br />
museum. The restaurant, which receives high marks from<br />
patrons, is tucked into the middle of the property and eludes<br />
some visitors. The planning team felt that the adequacy of<br />
facilities was an issue to consider as we review programming<br />
plans for the future. Very likely, we will need to construct or<br />
adapt a facility to answer these needs. 14
15<br />
Financial Strategies<br />
And, finally, the plan sets in place a process for<br />
developing Hagley’s capacity to raise necessary funds without<br />
invading the endowment. The first step will be to energize<br />
the annual Hagley Fund campaign through personal visits<br />
from the director and head of development, Jill MacKenzie.<br />
This will be closely followed by efforts to build membership<br />
and create a program of planned giving.<br />
At the center of the tunnel is a<br />
Each of these is a desirable step in<br />
rocker arm, used to place the segments preparing for a capital campaign two or<br />
of the iron tunnel rings that were<br />
three years hence, which will likely focus<br />
bolted together.<br />
on museum needs and facilities.<br />
These items are the focus of our<br />
strategic plan for the coming three years.<br />
Highlights of the Year<br />
No summary can adequately describe the broad scope of<br />
Hagley activities and the contributions of its many staff<br />
members and volunteers during <strong>2003</strong>, but here is a<br />
representative sampling of notable occurrences.<br />
With the arrival in <strong>2003</strong> of Terry Snyder, who assumed the<br />
post of Deputy Director for Library Adminstration, Hagley<br />
returned to the familiar pattern of an institutional director and<br />
two deputy directors, one each for the museum and library.<br />
Dr. Snyder, who holds a doctorate in American studies from the<br />
University of Pennsylvania, came to us from a distinguished<br />
career in archives and records management at Penn.<br />
There were a number of significant and exciting additions<br />
to our holdings. We purchased a large collection of items<br />
relating to the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia.<br />
These include two elephant folios of photographic prints,<br />
three oversized scrapbooks filled with rare ephemera, and<br />
more than 100 imprint titles. We speculate that the pristine<br />
collection was assembled by one of the commissioners or<br />
officers of the Exposition. The acquisition significantly<br />
augments our already rich resources about world fairs and<br />
expositions, which will be the basis of a major museum<br />
exhibition in 2005. We also added to the archives 41 linear<br />
feet of gifts and purchases and 82 linear feet of deposits.<br />
Some of the notable materials include the records of the<br />
Michter Whiskey Company, an old Pennsylvania firm, and the<br />
records of Herbert Northrup’s Industrial Research Unit at the<br />
Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
17<br />
The library staff joined the museum staff in the creation<br />
of a major temporary exhibit called “Machine, Monument, &<br />
Metropolis: New York’s Pennsylvania Station.” Drawing<br />
upon Hagley’s rich visual and textual archives of the<br />
Pennsylvania Railroad, the exhibit tells the story of<br />
Pennsylvania Station’s design, construction, and operation,<br />
as well as the reasons for its demise in the 1960s. Thanks to<br />
numerous train buffs and tireless volunteer modelers who<br />
labored for several years on the project, the centerpiece is a<br />
detailed model of the station with working HO-gauge trains<br />
underneath. The opening of the exhibit drew a large crowd,<br />
and the exhibit itself received favorable notice across the<br />
region. Generously funded by Hagley members Larry and<br />
Laurie Seese, it will remain in place through 2004.<br />
Almost as long in planning and execution was Hagley’s<br />
first major television documentary, A Separate Place: The<br />
Schools P. S. du Pont Built. The program documents the<br />
efforts to build quality schools for Delaware’s African<br />
American students in the days of segregation, and it traces<br />
the impact on Delaware schools of the famous Supreme Court<br />
case, Brown v. Board of Education, which declared
segregation unconstitutional. The executive producer was<br />
Jeanne Nutter; and Hagley Center Associate Director Roger<br />
Horowitz, former staff member Michael Nash, and Kendrick<br />
Simmons served as co-producers. Hagley introduced the fiftyfive<br />
minute film with a gala reception at the Hotel DuPont in<br />
February and arranged for it to be shown on WHYY, the<br />
Philadelphia-Wilmington public television station. We<br />
distributed a shorter version, suitable for classroom use, to<br />
schools in Delaware. The project received<br />
generous funding from the Longwood Workers caulked the seams between<br />
Foundation, Wilmington Trust, which the tunnel rings, after which it was lined<br />
supported the gala premiere, and the with concrete. Afreican Americans and<br />
Delaware Humanities Forum, a state Italian immigrants made up the bulk<br />
program of the National Endowment for of the tunnel crews.<br />
the Humanities. On many occasions<br />
throughout the year, Roger Horowitz presented the<br />
documentary to general audiences, teachers, and professional<br />
organizations, each time to great acclaim.<br />
In <strong>2003</strong>, we celebrated the 200th anniversary of<br />
Eleutherian Mills by matching a challenge grant for major<br />
restoration work. Thanks to the Longwood Foundation, which<br />
offered a $250,000 challenge grant, and du Pont family<br />
members, who exceeded the challenge by contributing nearly<br />
$500,000, Hagley will begin major repairs in 2004. Initially<br />
conceived as a project to upgrade wiring, the scope of work<br />
expanded significantly as we found roof, stucco, and<br />
woodwork problems. We will also replace the aging fire<br />
detection system and extend the coverage to key outbuildings.<br />
The residence will reopen to the public in early 2005.<br />
Like many museums across the nation, Hagley is taking<br />
fresh looks at programming and marketing. Our new Program<br />
Committee reviewed existing programs and made some<br />
changes. Hagley dropped the spring Storybook Garden Party<br />
and decided to do the same with Summer Science Days and<br />
the Festival of Museum Shopping after a drop in attendance.<br />
The museum began a spring Civil War Family Day event as<br />
a test and, for the first time, included the upper property in<br />
the August Bike and Hike evenings, much to the delight of<br />
our visitors. We will expand Bike and Hikes into a second<br />
summer month in 2004. Other continuing programs, such<br />
as the annual Hagley Car Show, the summer Creek Kids<br />
program, and the winter Invention Convention remained<br />
hugely popular, with Car Show attendance rising 23 percent<br />
over last year.<br />
18
19<br />
During the summer, our long-vacant New Century Power<br />
House, that formerly housed our Hydroelectric Plant, became<br />
the new site of “Easy Does It!,” a popular demonstration of<br />
simple machines. I suspect it is every child’s dream to place<br />
mother or father on the elevator and crank them skyward,<br />
thanks to the efficiency of gears and pulleys. Previously<br />
housed in one of the old mill buildings, which lacked<br />
adequate heating and cooling, the exhibit now occupies prime<br />
space in a beautifully refitted building near Henry Clay Mill.<br />
This project, like the basic carpentry of the Pennsylvania<br />
Station exhibit, the creation of new office space at the Hall<br />
of Records for the museum curator and registrar, and the<br />
refurbishment of the scholars’ quarters in the Belin House<br />
benefited greatly from the many talents of our Service<br />
Division staff members.<br />
One of our signal successes in new programming was a<br />
fall harvest party for the Golden Pheasants, the name we give<br />
to our “young and young at heart” member organization.<br />
With the combined appeal of hayrides, games, barbecue,<br />
ghost stories, and more, the event drew 250 attendees and<br />
brought us twenty-five new family memberships. The
planning committee included Henry B. du Pont IV, Brad and<br />
Priscilla du Pont, and Brian and Tracy Fuchs.<br />
Another program that drew a large audience was a lecture<br />
by Jon Kukla, author of A Wilderness So Immense, a new<br />
book about the Louisiana Purchase.<br />
Kukla proved to be as fine a speaker as The train announcer occupied<br />
he is a writer. He underscored the an elevated booth overlooking<br />
contributions of Pierre Samuel du Pont de the Concourse.<br />
Nemours, an unofficial emissary for<br />
Thomas Jefferson to Napoleon’s circle, to the successful<br />
conclusion of the purchase treaty. Because of the strong<br />
response to the lecture and numerous requests for similar<br />
programs, we are considering the creation of a lecture series<br />
in 2004 or 2005.<br />
Wilmington Trust, our corporate sponsor for Fireworks<br />
at Hagley, decided to celebrate its 100th anniversary with a<br />
special bang. At the Trust’s request, Hagley arranged a night<br />
of fireworks just for the company’s employees and their<br />
families—about 4,000 people in all. The response was so<br />
overwhelmingly positive that Wilmington Trust and Hagley<br />
20
have agreed to bring back this third night of fireworks in 2004<br />
with the possibility of it becoming an annual bank event.<br />
Much of what Hagley offers requires special marketing<br />
of events. In <strong>2003</strong>, we joined forces with sister institutions<br />
in the Brandywine Valley and several hotels and restaurants<br />
to try a very different kind of marketing. With a grant from<br />
the Delaware Tourism Office and additional funds from the<br />
partners, we marketed hotel and ticket packages for visits to<br />
“Chateau Country.” Under the direction<br />
One of the granite eagles from Penn of Hagley Marketing Manager Suzanna<br />
Station now has a home at Philadelphia’s Rogers, the concept proved popular<br />
30th Street Station.<br />
beyond our expectations, and the<br />
partners renewed for a second year and<br />
increased the advertising budget.<br />
And finally, a small tribute. Sometimes, as Sherlock<br />
Holmes noted, the significant thing is the dog that does not<br />
bark in the night. Our business office consists of three people:<br />
Jay Stellenberg, the business manager; Peggy Teofilak, and<br />
David Alston. They routinely deal with thousands of purchase<br />
transactions and checks for contributions and membership;<br />
they staff our active Investments Committee and execute its<br />
directives; they oversee the museum shop and the restaurant;<br />
and they manage the entire Hagley budget, providing regular<br />
reports to the director and Board of Trustees. They do all this<br />
with no fanfare and no mistakes of any significance. Year in<br />
and year out, our auditors find little to bark about, and for<br />
that we salute the business office staff.<br />
