Following up  Eric Siegel's earlier posting about the demise of Bell 
Labs as a long-range R & D organization, I asked Sheldon Hochheiser, 
the longtime archivist for AT & T/Bell Labs (he is now at IEEE 
History Center) what had happened to the AT & T archives. He said:

"All pre-split  (pre 1996) archival material remains at the AT&T 
Archives in Warren NJ, just as they were when I left AT&T in 2004. 
 The current contact there is George Kupczak. [log in to unmask] 
Lucent began a new archives from scratch in 1996.

The new AT&T (that is the old SBC [ie Southwestern Bell], which 
acquired AT&T in 2005, and promptly changed its name) is, 
fortunately, a company that values history."
