Writings on African Archives (Part 4)

For a general introduction to this working bibliography and an account of criteria for inclusion see Part 1 in ARD 62. This section contains a number of items relating to the various West African workshops organized by the Association of Commonwealth Archivists and Records Managers (ACARM), of which copies are available in the library of the Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London where the Association has its Secretariat. Although in general in this series of bibliographies entries have not been made for “in-house” finding aids produced by archives, an exception is made here for the extensive series produced by the National Archives of Nigeria. This is because these cyclostyled lists were fairly widely circulated, and certainly many of those produced in the 1960s are available in libraries outside the country (in the U.K. for example in the Institutes of Commonwealth Studies and Historical Research and SOAS at the University of London).
