Welcome to the Business Archives Section (BAS)

The Business Archives Section (BAS) provides a vital mechanism for archivists to become active in the work of the Society of American Archivists (SAA) and for meeting members with a common interest in managing and providing access to business archives.

The Business Archives Section is comprised of employees of corporations, businesses, non-profit organizations and associations, who administer and provide access to non-current records of a historical or archival nature. Currently, 371 members of SAA belong to the Business Archives Section.

The conduct of business for this section is guided by a governance document that is maintained on this site.
