The Baker-Cederberg Museum and Archives (B-C.M.A.)of the Rochester General
Hospital has published a booklet to assist healthcare organizations in
developing historical programs. This 24 page booklet outlines the B-C.M.A.
program and how to start, what to collect, and what questions to consider
before committing to forming an institutional archives. It is meant to
assist non-archivists and persons with a vested interest in establishing a
historical program.  And what to do until their administrations wake up and
realize the value of an archives program.  "Organizing a Healthcare History
Program, An Outline Prepared for the  Rochester Healthcare Archives Network"
