Description

Product Description New in paperback! Maher introduces the basic elements required for an archival program to meet the documentary needs of a college or university. Both archivists and their administrative superiors can obtain a thorough understanding of archival work and its importance to their institution. Beginning archivists, experienced academic archivists, archivists outside academe, and related professionals will all benefit from this book, which assesses the current status and conditions of academic archives, articulates the basic principles that should determine the operating goals for academic archives, and synthesizes external professional standards and techniques with a systematic overview of what is practical for academic archivists. Cloth version previously published in 1992. Review ...it not only provides an authoritative guide to establishing and maintaining university archives, but its principles can also be applied to other types of archival programs. It would also be an excellent text for students enrolled in archival management courses.--Australian Library Journal ...there are insights to be drawn from Maher's general analysis of how to operate in the higher education environment...a greater sense of idealism that we could learn from.--Archives and Manuscripts: Journal of the Australian Society of Archivists Those individuals searching for a one volume reference on the administration of college and university archives will find this volume a useful start, in that Maher has left hardly a subject of relevance untreated will stand as an important reference...--Jasis About the Author William Maher is Assistant University Archivist and Humanities Preservation Project Director, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He has written over a dozen articles for professional journals, including seminal works on processing costs and financial administration and on the nature of college and university archives.
