Résumé:

"A significant portion of U.S. institutions charged with the preservation of our cultural heritage are small repositories and one-person shops ... [This book] offers guidance on how to handle common work demands while promoting archives best practice. [The author] ... address[es] a comprehensive range of topics, including administration and budget, fundraising and donor relations, information technology, collections management, records management, preservation, reference and outreach, facility management, disaster preparedness, and internship and volunteer programs. In addition, case studies by a dozen practitioners representing diverse backgrounds, institutional settings, and geographic locations discuss the challenges they faced when they found themselves responsible for the full spectrum of archives work with limited or no paid staff to assist"--Page 4 of cover.
