Carrie, AREA was indeed a group that joined to become what we now know
as ARMA in the mid-1970's I think.

I'm working on a couple of presentations on Vital Records and came
across a publication in our office from the Department of Defense
dated
July 1966.  It is entitled "Protection of Vital Records" - A special
report by the Association of Records Executives and Administrators,
Inc.
(AREA).  The publication was part of the Industrial Civil Defense
program for DOD's Office of Civil Defense.

Does anyone know if AREA is:
Is this an early name for ARMA?
Was it a group that then merged with ARMA?
Something totally separate that is no longer around?


Any info appreciated.
