Check out the archives listserv or the website for Society of American
Archivists (.......  www.archivists.org )
http://listserv.muohio.edu/archives/archives.html
and take a look at some of the suggested readings.  Be sure to advise her
that archivists, like museum curators, come from different walks of life and
often have different opinions.   I'm sure you know what I mean!
