Schools
A school archives is different from an official school records system. Developing a school archives provides a valuable service-learning opportunity for students and creates a lasting legacy from which future students will benefit.
Not-for-Profit organisations
Most have a very specific reason for existing as an operation. Their archives needs to reflect
this purpose and be specific to the manner in which they are funded. Their archival collections hold much that can be used in marketing.
Companies
They exist to serve business goals, enhance brands and engage customers and staff.
Religious institutions
Religious archives relate to tradition and faith or in the case of the Catholic Church, the religious orders of which they are comprised.
Local Government
At Council level, there are always archives of the running of that organisation, its staff, projects, and always a predominance of property records, plans, and statutory documentation.
Special collections and professional papers
These are records of individuals, events and projects. These often have strong family ties and high social significance.
Estates and family collections
You can expect to find all the variety you do in a large collecting archive but it is held by one family. Often collected as part of genealogy, sometimes inherited, created every day a child goes to school.
University Colleges
They keep materials relating to a specific institution and how it operates as well as being designed to serve their administration, alumni, and the public.
Historical Societies
As organisations seeking to preserve and promote interest in a specific area, they collect the full gambit of documents and memorabilia.
Museums
As they primarily collect and display, they too need archives to provide information about those items as well as the personal contacts and social history context.
