This volume is intended to aid both those organizations considering
the establishment of an institutional archives and those practicing
archivists needing materials to assist them in evaluating their
programs and planning for their development. The author's theme is
that archival programs found in corporate, educational, cultural,
and religious institutions are necessary both to the organizations
themselves and their efficient functioning and to society's concern
for preserving its documentary heritage. Managing Institutional
Archives covers all aspects of managing an archival program. There
are chapters on appraisal and acquisition; preservation and
security; arrangement, description, and reference; internal and
external support, fund-raising and grantsmanship; and cooperation.
The impact of new information technology on organizations and the
implications for their archives are discussed. A detailed
examination of three case studies of archives is provided. The
final chapter is a description of sources for additional assistance
in managing institutional archives. Managing Institutional Archives
will be useful to archival specialists, administrators, educators,
and others needing guidance about the elements of managing
archives. Its contents is based on a wide-reading of archival
theory and practice and nearly two decades of archival experience
by the author.
