Business Archives in Italy

Two articles about the work of the Archive Services have recently been published in the English edition of an Italian online journal called Culture e Impresa.   This is a journal that publishes articles related to archives, culture and business and is linked to the Centre for Corporate Culture in Milan. 

I wrote an article about the Ballast Trust, which can be read here and Claire Paterson wrote an article about the Stoddard-Templeton collection, which can be read here

In addition to our articles there are lots of articles about different business archive and business heritage projects in Italy which make for interesting reading.  These include the Pirelli Archives (including some great pictures from their collection), cataloguing industrial photographs and an article about the archives of a prominent Milanese family, the Feltrinellis.

All the articles, as well as past editions of the journal can be viewed here.
