Book synopsis

Here is the first-ever comprehensive guide to archival concepts, principles and practices. The Encyclopedia of Archival Science features 154 entries, which address every aspect of archival professional knowledge. These entries range from traditional ideas (like appraisal and provenance) to today's challenges (digitization and digital preservation). They present the thoughts of leading luminaries like Ernst Posner, Margaret Cross-Norton, and Philip Brooks as well as those of contemporary authors and rising scholars. Historical and ethical components of practice are infused throughout the work. Edited by Luciana Duranti from the University of British Columbia and Patricia Franks from San Jose State University, this landmark work was overseen by an editorial board comprised of leading archivists and archival educators from every continent: Ken Thibodeau (ex-NARA-ERA, now NIST), Geoffrey Yeo (University College London), Adrian Cunningham (Queensland State Archives), Fiorella Foscarini (ex-University of Toronto, now University of Amsterdam), and Pat Galloway (University of Texas at Austin).
