| What is an Archive? |
| Answer / Solution |
|
| There’s a fun phrase that goes “The Archives keeps the Archives in the Archives.” As you can see the word has three meanings: A department that is in charge of maintaining the historical collections of an organization. The historical collections themselves. The room(s) or building the historical materials are actually kept in. An easy way to remember is – it’s the “cool old stuff.” |
