Margaret Hedstrom is an associate professor in the School of Information and faculty coordinator of the Archives and Records Management specialization within the Master of Science in Information program. Before joining the U-M faculty in 1995, Hedstrom was chief of state records advisory services and director of the Center for Electronic Records at the New York State Archives and Records Administration (1985-95). Hedstrom has been conducting research on the management and preservation of electronic records for nearly 20 years, beginning at the State Historical Society of Wisconsin (1979-83). At the New York State Archives and Records Administration, she supervised a three-year research project which developed alternative models for electronic records programs. She was also one of the principal planners of a major conference on electronic records research held in 1991 which established national priorities for research and development; and she organized a follow-up conference in 1996. She has published widely on many aspects of archival management, electronic records, and digital preservation and is currently writing a book on digital preservation to be published by MIT Press. Her current research interests include digital preservation strategies, the impact of electronic communications on organizational memory and documentation, remote access to archival materials, and cultural preservation and outreach in developing countries. She has conducted more than 20 professional development workshops in the U.S., Canada, Australia, the U.K., and Sweden. She has served on Ph.D. committees at the University at Albany, the University of Pittsburgh, and the University of Michigan.
