Managing Processing Staff: Hiring, Training And Retaining, Pam Hackbart-Dean

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

Chuck Tanner, left fielder and manager in Major League Baseball, noted “There are three secrets to managing. The first secret is have patience. The second is be patient. And the third most important secret is patience.” Effectively managing processing staff in an archives or special collections permits supervisors to marshal the strengths of staff to accomplish processing goals. Successful processing programs facilitate the hiring, development, and retention of top-notch staff. Henry Mintzberg, Cleghorn Professor of Management Studies at McGill University, states simply, “Management is, above all, a practice where art, science, and craft meet."

Case Files: A Congressional Archivist's Dilemma, Cary G. Osborne

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

One of the more difficult decisions for congressional archivists is deciding what to do with case files. It might help to first understand what importance casework held in the congressperson’s career, particularly as it influenced chances of re-election. A review of the literature shows that there is little agreement among experts in this regard. In congressional archives there is also little agreement on whether the files should be retained. This paper looks at the advantages and disadvantages in using various methodologies in processing these files in an effort to clarify criteria for making that decision.
