What are the implications hereof for archival theory and practise, and for future historical research?
Comparison of different national traditions
of archival practice and education
Linking archival theory and practice
The digital revolution implies new ways of information retrieval and knowledge sharing and blurs distinctions between information and records management in the workplace and the archivists’ work at the archives.
