Archivists, and the Archives @ Heartbeat of Fashion Houses
These mini-museums have the very important job of both protecting the past and supporting the future.
With digital libraries being so meticulously catalogued, an archive's physical collection is ordered with even greater care. As such, it's vital that archivists, as well as the company at large, regulate who visits the space. Trips to the Gap, Inc. archive are by appointment-only, often needing to be made days in advance; during the actual visit, Mueller act as the guide, helping company employees find what they need. She recalls getting requests that are as explicit as, "'We need to see items with this type of collar,'" she says, or, "'I need to see if you have this specific item from the '90s.'"
