Hi Aric,

The Society of American Archivists has "Starting an Archives" by Eliz
Yakel. Published 1994, so I suppose they still sell this.

It covers everything from planning your archival program to appendices with

samples of forms (deed of gift, etc.), a great biblio essay and a useful
index.

Hope this helps.

Can anyone recommend a good source of information on setting up an archives
from scratch? I looked at the Society of Amercian Archivists book catalog,
but none of the titles seemed to deal with the basics of getting started
(unless I overlooked it). Any leads?
