ArchiveGrid is an important destination for searching through historical documents, personal papers, and family histories held in archives around the world. Thousands of libraries, museums, and archives have contributed nearly a million collection descriptions to ArchiveGrid. Researchers searching ArchiveGrid can learn about the many items in each of these collections, contact archives to arrange a visit to examine materials, and order copies.
This is the sixth edition of the Directory of Corporate Archives in the United States and Canada, published by the Society of American Archivists' Business Archives Section. This edition includes companies that maintain their historical records themselves, as well as companies that contract with historical consulting firms to maintain their archives collections for them. Those businesses that contract outside the company for archival services are marked by an asterisk. This edition also includes the archives of professional associations, as these collections document various industries and companies that may be of use to corporate archivists.
The Internet Archive is a non-profit that archives Internet sites, multimedia, and texts in digital form. Much like a physical library, it provides free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public. The University of Illinois has contributed about 15,000 digital books from our print collection to the Internet Archive.
Established in 1963, the University of Illinois Archives is a major center for research and learning. It is a unifying influence on campus and includes more than 23,000 cubic feet of records, publications, and faculty/alumni papers relating to the University and the Urbana-Champaign campus. It also holds major research resources such as the American Library Association Archives, the Advertising Council Archives, and the records of other professional societies.
