Blurb

The first-ever comprehensive guide to archival concepts, principles, and practices, now updated and expanded.

Encyclopedia of Archival Science features 168 entries, which address every aspect of archival professional knowledge. These entries range from traditional concepts (e. g. record, principle of provenance) to today's challenges (e. g. , digital preservation and Artificial Intelligence). They present the thoughts of leading luminaries like Hilary Jenkinson, Margaret Cross-Norton and Giorgio Cencetti 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 C. Franks from San José State University, the second edition of this landmark work was overseen by an international editorial board comprised of leading archivists and archival educators: Jeannette Bastian (Simmons University, USA) Jessica Bushey and Darra Hofman (San Jose State University USA), Vicki Lemieux and Corinne Rogers (University of British Columbia, Canada), Isto Huvila (Uppsala University, Sweden), and Pierluigi Feliciati (University of Macerata, Italy).
