<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt">Knowledge and understanding of the scope, location and extent of an archive’s holdings is crucial to ensuring proper management of the collections entrusted to the archivists. The Archives & Library at The
Henry Ford has not conducted a thorough holdings survey since our collections were transitioned to the then-new Benson Ford Research Center in 2002. In order to update this basic but vital data to reflect the current state of our holdings; to have it conform
with current professional best-practice; and to have it recorded completely within our collections management system, the Archives & Library at The Henry Ford has initiated a multi-year project to survey our archival storage areas on a shelf-by-shelf, aisle-by-aisle
basis.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
