In 1991 Dumain became archivist/librarian of the C.L.R. James Institute in New York, founded by Jim Murray (1949-2003) in 1983 to document James"s life and work. This ideal is also reflected in Dumain"s unusual website, The Autodidact Project, which reprints bibliographies, research guides and articles by radical thinkers, as well as a wide range of reviews and other writings by Dumain himself.
