Lockheed Martin archive or library

As you work for the company I thought you might know if Lockheed Martin has an archive or library that is open to the public or at least outside researchers? Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:42, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good question, I do not know, but I'd be glad to find out. GLesLM (talk) 11:46, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Meanwhile... I've found this (looks great for technology and research information) and this video archive. Neither seems to contain much in the way of company history or go back beyond the last decade or so, though some of L-M's "ancestors" go back almost a century.

From what I have been able to find by asking around, there isn't a single central physical repository for historic archives. Here is a site they put together for the 100th Anniversary. (I have an ask out to the folks who put that together, as they may be able to steer me in the right direction.) I'm a newbie around here, so kind of curious myself. There might be site-specific archives, as individual sites seem to be around for a good long time. I'm based at the Moorestown, NJ, facility, which has a nearly 50-year history with the Aegis program (beginning with when RCA still owned the site). GLesLM (talk) 12:56, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Just an idea: Perhaps you could compile a list of such resources on your userpage - with a brief intro stating that you work for the company. It wuld serve two purposes - it would be your conflict of interest declaration and make the resources known to other interested Wikipedians (such as myself). BTW take a look at the WP:GLAM page - it contains a lot of useful and relevant information. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 09:21, 15 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A beer for you!

Thanks for being so great about the COI thing. Faceless Enemy (talk) 11:47, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
