- W197566438 abstract "This paper looks at the relationship between an archives and its research community. It is essentially a report on the work of the Noel Butlin Archives Centre (NBAC) at the Australian National University (ANU) since the package announced by the ViceChancellor in November 1997. I am assuming that my audience is familiar with the events of 1997, when the closure of this longestablished significant resource for business and labour history was only averted after a strong public campaign in which the Australian Society for the Study of Labour History and many of its individual members were major players. The essential features of the package were that the NBAC would be provided with bridging funding for three years, during which time it was expected to raise substantial funds so that it would eventually become largely self-funding; the Centre was to begin charging non-ANU users and depositors; it was administratively transferred from the Research School of Social Sciences to the University Library; and a revised collecting policy was to be developed in cooperation with other related institutions. The University also announced that it intended to construct a new facility to house both the NBAC collections and its own University Archives. Briefly, the NBAC survives, but could be said to be in an arrested state of development. The resources made available under the threeyear funding plan enable the Centre to provide basic services to researchers and to depositors, but not to extend or enhance those services or to have an active collecting program. The Centre now has two full-time and one half-time archivists and a full-time administrator to look after its operations. This is a significant reduction in staff and also means that the Centre has to close for brief periods every few months to do detailed work on collections (and to straddle staff leave). My role, in the new position of University Archivist, includes responsibility for the strategic direction and management oversight of the Centre. This involves regular reporting to the University Librarian and extensive liaison with the University's Development Office in attempts to raise external funds to secure the future of the Centre after the end of next year. An advisory committee to advise on policy and monitor the Centre's operations, which has representation from the Friends of the NBAC and the Australian Society of Archivists, was established last year. This Committee meets quarterly, but its role is very much advisory and the extent of its influence is somewhat circumscribed by the terms of the rescue package. In terms ofits current finances, the NBAC has sufficient resources to run at its existing level of activity and benefits from the advice of the Library's finance staff. The amounts raised from reader's tickets have not been substantialthey are generally less than that received from photocopying each month. The efforts to raise funds from charges to depositors have not been particularly successful to date; they have also been time-consuming as only those organisations whose records are deposited, as opposed to donated, can be" @default.
