Workshop Description
Although they have much in common with librarians, records managers, and
museum staff, archivists must use different practices to protect the
integrity of historical records. A strong archives program puts into
practice long-standing archival principles. What are those principles
and how do you implement them? This workshop provides an overview of
basic archival functions, including appraisal and accessioning,
arrangement and description, preservation, and reference.
In this workshop you'll:
* Learn archives and historical records terminology and get an
overview of the body of knowledge needed, ethical responsibilities, and
resources for continuing professional development;
* Learn the principles of archival organization and functions:
Provenance, respect de fonds, and original order;
* Find out about core policy statements, professional standards,
and best practices, and learn how to evaluate your current program and
determine needed improvements;
* Develop the knowledge base needed to make choices for balancing
access to and preservation of historical records and holdings; and
* Gain a greater understanding of the role of the archives in
fulfilling the mission of the institution.
Who should attend? Librarians, records managers, museum staff, and
administrators who have responsibility for archival records but little
or no archives training.
Attendance is limited to 35.
