This may not have been what you were seeking to begin with but in the end I think it is the way to inventory sort and track information.

Can anyone recommend a good source of information on setting up an archives from scratch? The orgainization I'm volunteering for has most of their collections stored in cardboard boxes, plastic storage containers, and sitting out in the open, and I'm not sure where to start. I have catalogs from several of the archival supply firms, so I'm aware of the products that are out there, but I have many questions and not sure where to get answers from. 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? Aric Peery
