The American archival profession and information technology standards

Richard J. Cox

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1992, vol. 43, issue 8, 571-575

Abstract: American archivists have long had an interest in standards, although their interest has led to more intensive activity in the past decade. New standards have been developed for arrangement and description of archival records and historical manuscripts, the adaptive use of bibliographic standards, preservation of archival records and historical manuscripts, and the use of information technology standards for the management of archival records in electronic form. Many challenges still remain, however. Most important of such questions is how archivists can play a greater role in the information standards‐setting world. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
