Managing business archives (Hardcover)

This work has been commissioned by the Business Archives Council to meet the clear need for an authoritative guide to archival principles and practice in the business environment.;Whilst the number of company archivists in the United Kingdom has multiplied dramatically in recent years, there remains little published material, other than the journals and occasional leaflets produced by the Business Archives council, which caters specifically for their needs and discusses the kind of issues which can confront business archivists.;Managing Business Archives will be of use not only to company archivists, but also to the wider constituency of those who are responsible for collections of business archives in local authority repositories or administering the historical records of other kinds of institutions.
