Where Are They Now?, Jane Powers Weldon
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
Several months ago, SGA appealed by newsletter and by letter to founding and pioneer members of the society, in hopes of getting reminiscences and anecdotes on SGA's early days, reporting on their present activities, and obtaining their evaluation's of SGA's contributions to their professional lives.

As we envisioned this session, our panel would discuss what brought them together, why they felt the ·need to organize; what they envisioned for SGA as a professional organization; how did they view its development; how they have viewed its development over the last few years; and what they would like to see for its future. Then, we thought that following some discussion about our beginning, it would be a very valuable exercise for those of us here to have a forum to explore development for SGA and what we, as a group, would like to have come from our …

The Society Of Georgia Archivists: Twenty Years Of Meeting Archival Needs In Georgia, Sheryl B. Vogt
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
Three years after the Society of American Archivists (SAA) held their thirtieth annual meeting in Atlanta in 1966 and three years after the establishment of the Georgia Archives Institute, twenty-one archivists gathered in Atlanta. This meeting on 25 July 1969 marked the first meeting of what would become the Society of Georgia Archivists (SGA)-the third state or regional archival group formed in the United States. The forefathers of SGA stated that its purpose was "to bring about a closer communication among people in archives, manuscripts, special libraries, and other historically oriented professions; to increase knowledge in the theories and practices …

The Georgia Archives Institute And The Training Of Archivists, 1967-1989, Linda M. Matthews
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
When Carroll Hart, director of the Georgia Department of Archives and History, began to formulate the idea of an archives training program at her institution in 1965, she was confronting a recurring and fundamental problem. There were few training programs for archivists in the United States, and only one course, a semester course in an undergraduate college, in the entire South. The oldest short-term training program at the National Archives in Washington, which in 1965 had just reduced its schedule from four weeks to two, could not provide a feasible training program for institutions whose personnel at all levels required …

Declassification Of Presidential Papers: The Eisenhower Library's Experience, David Haight
Declassification Of Presidential Papers: The Eisenhower Library's Experience, David Haight
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
In 1972, eleven years after Dwight D. Eisenhower left the White House, archivists at the Eisenhower Library began processing his high-level presidential papers. The library submitted its first mandatory declassification review request to United States government agencies in 1973; sixteen years later this declassification process continues with no completion date in sight. The Eisenhower Library's experience demonstrates that declassifying recent presidential papers is difficult, expensive, and often frustrating both for the requestor and the library.

Short Subjects: Team Collaboration Through The Design Process, Or What An Architect Says To A Friendly Archivist, Larry C. Sweat
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
The intent of this article is to remove the shroud of mystery behind what a design professional does and to help create a viable dialogue between the archivist and the architect. Archivists should be viewed as experts. The complexities of operating an archival library are best understood by the people who work dayto- day in and maintain their facility. Conversely, architects are trained problem-solvers who should be able to present creatively alternative solutions about how the building may work or how people may use it. Consideration of these different solutions can often lead to improvements of existing situations. A significant …

Jimmy Carter And The Presidential Library System, Richard Dees Funderburke
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
Ralph Waldo Emerson felt that the study of history was significant to the individual for what it revealed about his own life. The monuments of other ages should be studied until the student "lives along the whole line of temples and sphinxes and catacombs, passes through them all with satisfaction, and they live again to the mind, or are now." The interest with which he might have viewed his own nation's monuments in the form of presidential libraries can only be surmised. He might have been appalled that the simple democratic nation he knew in the 1840s had come …

Short Subjects: Foxes Guarding The Hen House: Archivists In Special Collections, William L. Joyce
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
While deciding on a title for this presentation, I selected one that was less provocative than that which initially occurred to me, the first iteration being: "Foxes Guarding the Hen House: The Coming Archival Takeover of Special Collections." I decided against this title for two reasons: first, it overstates the current situation and likely future condition of research IIbraries· generally, and special collections units in particular; and, second, it. only exacerbates the attitudinal problem that I believe all of us need to acknowledge.

New Appraisal Techniques: The Effect Of Theory On Practice, Margaret Hedstrom
New Appraisal Techniques: The Effect Of Theory On Practice, Margaret Hedstrom
Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists
Archivists are acutely aware of the need for a better framework and new methods to guide the selection of records with enduring value. Whether appraising the current records of government agencies, corporations, colleges or universities, or social organizations, archivists confront a gargantuan task with meager tools. Appraisal theory provides general principles based on a few broad generalizations: the distinction between primary and secondary uses for records; the need to evaluate their evidential and informational values; the notion that organizations ought to preserve a record of their significant policies, procedures, functions, and activities; and the premise that certain levels of the …
