Not much has been written recently about encouraging the use of primary source materials by undergraduate and other students. Most of the attention paid to this form of outreach has, in any event, been focused on manuscripts repositories. College and university archives have special difficulties convincing students and faculty that their primary sources are relevant to the curriculum. It is an effort that can result in tangible benefits for the archives, however, and should receive high priority.
