The ideas, perspectives, and methodologies that inform contemporary documentary editing and the production of editions of archival sources [print and digital] have their origins in earlier eras of editing. Editor-historians active in the 1930s-1960s engaged in editorial work that also expressed itself as a form of archival criticism. The emergence of this archival criticism remains under examined. This has consequences for our broader understanding of LIS and archival history, while limiting critique of contemporary expressions of archival publishing.
