Cultural Evidence: On The Common Ground Between Archivists And Museologists, Gloria Meraz

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

Museums and archives represent two of the most durable and long-lived means for perpetuating culture and social memory. Like their sister repository, the library, museums and archives fill long-established and specialized roles in the care of cultural materials. These roles, crafted over centuries of changing responsibilities and pressures, must be reexamined in the face of modem needs, technologies, and expectations. While archival repositories and museums have developed into two distinctive types of cultural institutions, they now find themselves amidst a need to consolidate their efforts and provide the public with a coherent means for accessing the increasingly fragmented and diverse …

Archival and historical organizations have traditionally suffered from a lack of funding and personnel. One way to combat this classic problem is through the development of collaborative grant-funded projects. By bonding like institutions together and creating a cooperative venture with a common goal, institutions can share funds, personnel, and knowledge in an undertaking that provides assistance to all without placing undue stress upon individual organizations.

The Ethics Of Disclosure: The Case Of The Brown And Williamson Cigarette Papers, Kurt X. Metzmeier

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

The story of the Brown and Williamson Cigarette Papers reads like a screenplay inspired by a John Grisham novel. Scene 1: In late 1992 Kentucky attorney J. Fox DeMoisey receives a bombshell, a banker's box full of documents stolen from the state's largest law firm, Wyatt Tarrant and Combs, by his client Merrell Williams. While working as a paralegal assigned to a project indexing secret documents of his firm's client, the Brown and Williamson Tobacco Company, Williams had furtively copied documents he thought demonstrated that the cigarette maker had deliberately hidden its knowledge of tobacco's lethal qualities, qualities that he …

Turning Pro: Reflections On The Career Of J. Franklin Jameson, Peter J. Wosh

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

Over the past two decades archivists have moved to define and codify their own separate and distinct profession, inventing a new language, developing a more intensive and expansive training regimen, and constructing a unique theoretical base. Such efforts may have helped archivists to distinguish themselves more clearly from other disciplines, but this new professional orientation has also produced conflicts with former friends and allies over issues such as governmental policies concerning electronic mail, funding priorities for the National Historical Publications and Records Commission, and Freedom of Information Act requests. The historical profession, too, has undergone significant changes as shifting research …

Taking A Byte Out Of The Senate: Reconsidering The Research Use Of Correspondence And Casework Files, Naomi L. Nelson

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

In the mid-1970s, a sustained discussion about the management of modem congressional collections first emerged in archival literature. Much of the debate over congressional collections during the intervening twenty years concerned the appropriate disposition of the voluminous constituent correspondence and casework files. Most archivists agreed that the casework and constituent correspondence records created and filed under the old paper-based system were bulky, hard to use, and of little research value.

Fresh Focus: Carter G. Woodson And The Association For The Study Of Negro Life And History, Eric N. Johnson

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

Too often the pressure of the present-day work environment lures archivists into ignoring their professional past or advancing shortsightedly into the future. To encourage such reflection on the archival enterprise, Provenance launches a new feature in this issue, Fresh Focus. This series of occasional essays opens with a survey of Carter Woodson's pioneering efforts to collect the history of African Americans written by Eric N. Johnson, a student in the archival program at the University of Texas.
