Re: Archives start when????
Actually, according to a survey conducted by COSHRC published in May 1998
("Where History Begins: A Report on Historical Records Repositories in the
United States"), the largest percentages of organizations--based on both
type of organization and repository size--established their records
programs in the 1970s (19.3%), 1980s (17.1%), and 1990-1996 (10.4%).
(Honest, I don't keep statistics like that in my head. The report has some
information related to a research project I am working on, and I just read
it last week, so the topic was fresh in my mind and the report close at
hand. :-))
