Svikhart Prologue is a scholarly journal published quarterly by the National Archives and Records Service of the General Services Administration. Its primary purpose is to bring to public attention the resources and programs of the National Archives, the regional archives, and the presidential libraries. Accordingly, Prologue in the main publishes material based, in whole or in part, on the holdings and programs of these institutions. In keeping with the nonpartisan character of the National Archives, Prologue will not accept articles that are politically partisan or that deal with contemporary political issues. Articles are selected for publication by the editors in consultation with experts. However, final responsibility for the decision to publish an article rests with the Archivist of the United States. The editors reserve the right to make routine changes in articles accepted for publication, but will consult the author should substantive questions arise. Published articles in no sense represent the views of the General Services Administration or of any other agency of the United States government. Manuscripts should be double spaced with generous margins to allow for copy editing. Footnotes should also be double spaced and numbered consecutively in a separate section following the text.
