Publication in the\u00a0<em>Quarterly<\/em>\u00a0would be a boost to an academic or writing career. Readers are assumed to have deep\u00a0knowledgeable about archival studies and\u00a0British and American culture of 1500 to 1900, so authors should be very sure of their information and provide new research and thinking in the field.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Last updated:\u00a0<\/strong>April 26, 2017<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>References<\/h4>\n<div id=\"footnotes-3120\" class=\"footnotes\">\n<ol>\n<li
