Product Information

For volunteers or staff at small organizations, collections management can be a daunting task. Archives 101 is a guidebook for people who care for historical records, photographs, and collections but do not have the appropriate professional training. Lois Hamill provides practical, step-by-step guidance for managing all facets of archival collections, from acquisition, arrangement, and description to storage and security. The book also offers advice on how to utilize PastPerfect software for collections database management. Archives 101 is written for those who manage cultural collections regardless of their professional education or institution type. It has been recommended by archivists, public historians, librarians and museum specialists, from the national to local level, as a comprehensive and practical ready reference handbook. Authoritative yet accessible to all readers, this volume addresses all phases in the process of managing cultural collections including use by researchers, for exhibits, work with other specialists such as conservators or appraisers and more. This handbook is unique in its comprehensiveness; practicality; inclusion of low cost options for tight budgets; discussion of questions to consider which enable the reader to adapt guidance to their specific setting; step-by-step guidance based on accepted theory; inclusion of specific instructions to perform tasks in PastPerfect 5.0, a collection management software; readily available free additional resources for each chapter; and an appendix rich with templates and examples illustrating the text. You'll find information on how to manage a basic digitization project from beginning to end; delivery options for digital files; incorporation of the DACS and Dublin Core descriptive standard(s) resulting in an updated finding aid template; several additional approaches to processing; and incorporation of considerations for donor confidentiality and specific questions for donors of digital records.

Reviews
Lois Hamill's Archives 101 is a wonderful introduction to the archival challenge--to preserve, protect, and provide access to cultural heritage materials. Designed for archivists-in-training who manage archival collections in small cultural organizations, Archives 101 is a well-written, straightforward, and much needed 'A-Z' archives guidebook., [This] is an eminently readable introduction to archival practices and a useful guide to help people begin hands-on archival work quickly and with confidence. Hamill's prose is clear, concise, and jargon-free. It could easily be handed to a new archives employee or volunteer to give them an overview of core archival concepts. Even for employees or volunteers at larger institutions who might be focused on one aspect of archival work and isolated from other departments, Archives 101 provides a thorough look at the work of a cultural institution when it comes to processing, making available, and storing documents, photographs, and other objects., This excellent and practical primer is a solid choice for staff of local collections, and educators and students of archiving. Particularly useful is the chapter on finding aids, including examples of finding aids that use the descriptive standard known as "Describing Archives: A Content Standard." The author relies on real examples throughout the book, and chapters include reading resources., Hamill's book Archives 101 is clearly the book for museums, historical societies and others who collect historical artifacts. The book is arranged for those of us who are not professionals but are beginners who are looking at basic concepts and definitions, and how to arrange and describe collections. Items are given their own chapters if you are looking for how to handle and manage photographs. There is even a section on disaster preparedness which we all hope to avoid, but should be ready for. Overall I have found this book to be a good one for societies and museums as a reference book in their collections. It will not be a book to collect dust on the shelf but will be a valuable resource for them., Lois Hamill's Archives 101 is a treasure. This easy-to-read, up-to-date guide is suitable for many audiences--from those starting out as a volunteer, to archivists who desire a little refresher, to instructors teaching introductory archives. My students loved it!, Archives 101 gives example forms and information layouts with formatting ,along with concrete examples fromArchives, Libraries, Museums and RecordManagement practices. The text is a welcoming and helpful guide for complete beginners who have never worked in libraries, museums, or academic institutions. The work is also suitable for a beginning professional to ensure a strong understanding and base knowledge, or new cultural organizations to grow as a collection and an archive while keeping in mind patron needs. The book is an effective plan, which, to quote Hamill, "is comprehensive, simple, and flexible" (p.203)., Hamill gets back to basics in this practical guide to archives. Beginning with foundational definitions and concepts, she focuses on the types of material that are often found in local historical collections and offers guidance on acquiring new materials, arranging a collection, and managing different kinds of archival resources, including paper-based records, photographs, audiovisual materials, books, artworks, and objects. Particularly useful is the chapter on finding aids, including examples of finding aids that use the descriptive standard known as "Describing Archives: A Content Standard." Although she references other collection management software too, Hamill uses PastPerfect to illustrate her instructions for creating archival descriptions. There are appendixes for guidelines and policies, sample forms and workflows, representative examples, and vendors. The author relies on real examples throughout the book, and chapters include reading resources.
