“All of these items are part of a much bigger story.”
Just as the company’s history continues to grow and change over the coming years, the Aramco Archive & Records Center will grow and change with it.
In that sense, the current Memorabilia Campaign is just the beginning of a process of creating and capturing the living memory of what is certainly one of the most important companies of our times.
Arthur P. Clark is a former editor of The Arabian Sun, former assistant editor of AramcoWorld, and former editor of Al-Ayyam Al-Jamilah, the magazine for Aramco retirees.
He recently donated artifacts and archive materials to both Ithra and the Aramco Archive & Records Center. Among the items donated were notes and records about former Aramco employees, such as former CEO Tom Barger.
“All of these items are part of a much bigger story,” Clark said. “They tell the story of what the company was and what it’s become.”
