Recent Council of State Archivists' surveys confirm troubling trends continuing nationwide: deep cuts in funding and staff, an enormous influx of paper records, and rapid growth in the volume and complexity of electronic records and digital preservation issues. CoSA's advocacy document explains the importance of state archives to state and national leaders, collaborative partners, funders, and the public. Presenters and the audience discuss current trends in state archives, advocacy strategies, and areas in which additional data collection is needed.
