Recenzii

Published book reviews:
"The International Business Archives Handbook is a one-stop-shop for those seeking advice and guidance on managing, processing and showcasing business archives. Broken down into four parts and 13 chapters, the volume successfully maintains a pragmatic approach throughout, drawing on the experiences of both business archivists and business historians to provide a comprehensive overview of the business archive sector in a global context. This practical approach is further complemented by the inclusion of case studies and information tables, which allow the reader to quickly locate information required as needed, or sit down for a more thorough perusal. The handbook has been constructed in such a way that it will be of use to anyone working in the business archive sector, regardless of their skillset [....] An international theme is prevalent throughout the book."
Karyn Williamson, book review in Archives and Records
Editorial endorsements:
“This book contains the wisdom of some of the world’s best specialists in the field of business archives. They have arduously assembled a wealth of information which makes it easy to set up a new business archive and to nurture it to becoming a useful asset for its sponsors. This book should be compulsory reading not only for archivists but also for business leaders who are interested in managing the continuity of their businesses.”
Alexander L. Bieri, Chair, Section on Business Archives, International Council on Archives
“Business archivists are unsung heroes. They are the guardians of the secrets of how capitalist enterprises in the past have driven innovation and created wealth. This impressive volume brings together both professional archivists and business historians to provide a robust and compelling intellectual foundation for the successful management of business archives in the digital age.
