At somewhere between 1.4 and 1.5 kilos, the long awaited 3r edition of Keeping Archives is truly a heavyweight in archival literature. Indeed, the sheer size and mass of information is perhaps the biggest criticism that can be made about the book, but it offers beginners a thorough grounding in the basic principles, methodologies and tactics needed to successfully manage archives. It also offers more experienced professionals a manual which can act as a refresher in some areas and a starting point for the more specialised areas, such as caring for audio-visual materials.
