Harper's Ferry Revisited: The Role Of Congressional Staff Archivists In Implementing The Congressional Papers Project Report, Faye Phillips

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

The 1978 Conference on the Research Use and Disposition of Senators' Papers affirmed the value inherent in senatorial papers. In the years since the conference, archivists and senate staff have struggled with preservation and use questions relating to those papers. In a continuing effort to answer such questions, the Dirksen Congressional Center and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) sponsored a conference on congressional papers at Harpers Ferry, West Virginia in 1985.

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

In August of 1985 the Special Collections Department of the William R. Pullen Library at Georgia State University (GSU) acquired a collection of photographic negatives estimated to number 150,000 images from Margaret P. Lane.

Short Subjects: Sunshine State Showpieces: Alligator-Skin Bindings In The Florida Archives, Hal Hubener Jan 1988

Short Subjects: Sunshine State Showpieces: Alligator-Skin Bindings In The Florida Archives, Hal Hubener

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

Archivists are primarily concerned with the informational value of records. Sometimes, however, that emphasis on information is so great that other properties, such as intrinsic value, are ignored. Materials have intrinsic value if they possess qualities that make their original form the only archivally acceptable one for preservation. These qualities may be physical or intellectual; that is, they may relate to the material object itself or to the information contained in it. Books, for example, can have intrinsic value because of several unique or curious features: paper, imprints, watermarks, illustrations, or bindings.
