Documenting America: Observations on Implementation

Author
  • F. Gerald Ham (State Historical Society of Wisconsin)

Abstract

The author outlines how the NHPRC's state assessment reports might be transformed into planning documents with defined priorities, actors, objectives, and monitoring procedures. He critiques the most commonly recurring recommendations and establishes a three-level paradigm (state, regional, and national) to implement the best recommendations emerging from the state reports. He concludes that the state reports, if properly evaluated, could serve as building blocks for an integrated national records program
