An up-to-date, illustrated primer for organizing both print and digital archival records.
Much of our nation’s documentary heritage resides in small historical societies, libraries, cultural organizations, houses of worship, and museums. The preservation of this heritage often depends on the dedicated efforts of people who, in their workaday world, practice some profession other than archivist. For thirty years, Organizing Archival Records has equipped non-professional archivists to tackle the challenging task of arranging and describing archival materials.
The latest edition preserves the practical, easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach of earlier editions while updating its content to reflect current archival practices and growing concerns over social justice, while offering solutions for common collection problems.

David W. Carmicheal formerly directed the Pennsylvania State Archives, the Georgia Department of Archives and History, and the Records and Archives Center. He established the Westchester County Archives. He has an M.A. in History and Archives. Adam T. Bentz is Director of Library & Archives at the York County History Center, is Vice President of the Pennsylvania Historical Association, and serves on the Pennsylvania State Historical Records Advisory Board. Bentz has an M.A. and Ph.D. in History.
