I hope that everyone saw in the latest “In the Loop” from SAA that it is making 82 out-of-print SAA publications freely accessible via the HathiTrust (http://www.hathitrust.org). There is a press release about it at http://www2.archivists.org/news/2011/treasure-trove.
This is a tremendous gift to archival research and education. Kudos to Paul Conway, Teresa Brinati, and the rest of the SAA staff who made this happen.

SAA has granted full-view permission for 82 out-of-print publications. The oldest item is August Robert Sueflow’s A Preliminary Guide to Church Record Repositories (1969). Highlights among the released publications include the original SAA Fundamental Series, important SAA planning reports (e.g., Planning for the Archival Profession 1986, Image of Archivists 1984, and Evaluation of Archival Institutions 1982), and Steve Hensen’s Archives, Personal Papers, and Manuscripts (1989). Also available now are three glossaries of archival terms spanning a 30 year period (Evans 1973; Bellardo 1992; Pearce-Moses 2005). A 1996 reprint of T. R. Schellenberg’s archival classic Modern Archives: Principles and Techniques is also included in the release.
Beyond individual publications, the material available in HathiTrust includes a full run of the SAA Newsletter from 1979 to 1998 and a two-volume compilation index for the first 30 volumes of American Archivist. Volumes 1 through 62 (1938 to 1999) of the journal itself are fully viewable through the HathiTrust interface.
