1. Archives: principles and practices

Beschreibung:
Millar’s book provides a clear, accessible overview of how archives are created, managed, preserved, and used. It explores the principles that underpin archival science—such as provenance, original order, authenticity, and appraisal—while also offering practical guidance on daily archival functions like acquisition, arrangement, description, preservation, and access. The author emphasizes that archives are not just collections of old documents but living evidence of human activity that shape cultural identity and collective memory. She discusses the evolving role of archivists in the digital age, addressing challenges such as digital preservation, ethical responsibilities, community engagement, and the democratization of archival access.
