The VALUE OF BUSINESS ARCHIVES TO The ECONOMIC HISTORIAN
Abstract
Within the past few years a small but vigorous and expanding group of scholars has demonstrated a growing interest in business records, and within the next decade or so they and their disciples will present librarians and archivists with some unfamiliar problems. Even if the record keepers resist the demand that they should venture forth to convert the businessmen and gather in the archival harvest, they must necessarily acquaint themselves with the current and prospective uses of these materials. As the main demands will undoubtedly come from business historians, I shall begin by outlining the present status and future prospects of this discipline.
