I am not an archivist, but the Society of American Archivists, 600 S.
Federal, Ste. 504, Chicago 60605 has a series of publications that could be
useful. Their number, I think, is 312.922.0140. I think I would start with
"Preserving Archives and Manuscripts."
I hope that helps,
Laura West

Hello!
We just hired a new librarian, and she has not had
much experience with archives. I am her supervisor,
and I would like to gather some information to help
ease her into her new job.
What publications do you recommend I compile for her?
I would like something that will explain the basics in
handling, storage, classification, etc.
She has an MLS, and my MA is in museum studies, so I
would like some imput from the archivist world.
Thanks!
Kim Kenney
