Recovery efforts may begin Monday for what remains of the archives of the Museum of Chinese in America, including some priceless historical records, that are feared damaged by a five-alarm fire last week.

The Chinese playwright David Henry Hwang was among those who tweeted about the urgent need to help the museum.
