Leading and Managing Archives and Manuscripts Programs. Archival Fundamentals Series III, Vol. 1. Edited by Peter Gottlieb and David W. Carmicheal. [Review]

Abstract

Archivists new to positions of leadership and management generally experience some anxiety when faced with the challenges and responsibilities inherent in leading archival programs and staff. While managing the day-to-day aspects of a department requires hands-on experience, Leading and Managing Archives and Manuscripts Programs provides a solid foundation upon which archivists new to leadership and management can begin their newfound responsibilities. It also provides seasoned leaders and managers an opportunity to reconsider their own approaches.
