Designing the Archives in the 21st Century

Der Internationale Archivrat (ICA) rief in diesem Jahr nicht nur zu einem Internationalen Tag der Archive, sondern zu einer Internationalen Woche der Archive (3.-9.6.2019) auf. Der ICA erläutert seine Vorstellungen zur „International Archives Week“ auf seiner Homepage:

Designing the Archive is about putting people at the centre of what we do. The campaign theme will focus on how in the 21st Century our profession -data and information managers, records managers and archivists- can provides opportunities for human-centred design approaches to ensure we deliver benefits to citizens, customers, stakeholders and communities. This cross cuts, not only geographical boundaries, but sectors and industries; we want to hear from archivists representing architecture to fashion, engineering to environmental management, public-sector and private-sector.

From paper to digital, how are you designing your archives for the 21st century? Let’s challenge what people think we do! Help us tell the world what archives in the 21st Century are about!

Share with us your vision of archives and your profession, and show us how you will celebrate archivists’ achievements from Monday 3 to Sunday 9 June 2019!
