Books by Richard Cox

Strictly for grown-ups! This book puts the tease into brain-teasers with a compendium of crude crosswords, unbelievably wicked word searches, dirty dot-to-dots and other provocative puzzles to test your knowledge of the smuttiest lingo - a racy replacement for life's idle moments.

This book helps readers understand the current status of archivists in the United States. It addresses issues of professionalization by re-examining two major aspects of the archival community: institutional forms and structures, and the basic educational foundations that are important to any profession. While United States archivists now seem poised to develop new approaches to the management of electronic records, including research and education venues, this profession's long journey to reach this point is an interesting step on the continuing road to professionalization. The First Generation of Electronic Records Archivists in the United States represents the first major study of how and why American archivists have struggled to contend with the management of electronic records. The book provides a framework for studying this issue, includes suggestions for additional research, and serves as a basis for discussion about the continued strengthening of the archival profession.
