The Business Archives Scotland blog has posted an end of year summary on the big developments this year in working with businesses to preserve their records, particularly in a year where recession has seen many company closures.
Successes have included the records of local paper mills being transferred to St Andrew's University and a local heritage society in Aberdeenshire, the records of a Newmilns lace mill being transferred to Ayrshire Archives and the records of a gear and deck machinery manufacturers moving to Renfrewshire Archives.
