English guide to archival documents

Introduction

The American IREX Agency (International Research & Exchanges Board) collaborated with the ASCR Archives on the creation of first version of these pages (1999) and provided financial assistance in the form of a grant both for a published summary of ASCR Archive record-groups (which came out in the Works from the History of the Academy of Sciences series, series B/13, 1999), and for these web-pages, with funds provided by the U. S. Department of State (Title VIII). None of this organization is responsible for the views expressed. Thanks are also due to Dr. Michael J. Maher, the administrator for the University of Baltimore and to the project guarantor on the American side, Prof. Catherine Albrecht from the University of Baltimore, who was of especial help in selecting the information on Czechoslovak-American scientific contacts that makes up the final section of this text.
