An Experiment in the Retention and Preservation of Corporate Records1

Carl H. McKenzie

Business History Review, 1943, vol. 17, issue S1, 3-23

Abstract: The growth and development of modern private business enterprise has been accompanied with a slowly maturing realization of the value and importance of both current and historical records. The ever-increasing accumulation of records and, in most instances, the entirely inadequate methods of retention, preservation, and storage have drawn attention to the growing need for the establishment of a methodical retention procedure. Such a costly solution as a program for new construction offers a sad commentary on management; the question of available space resolves itself into a problem of management.
