Document management in archival theory and practice

Summary/Abstract: Regarding the fact that archives can be paper based or electronic we are lately facing in records management and current archival theory and practice certain changes, which are defined also in the Declaration on Archives. Problems are arising in the processes of the creation, recording and all the other tasks in records management at creators, as well as at archiving of documents having the character of archives. The process of archiving is prescribed by the Guidelines on Archiving. In this field we are faced with a lack of knowledge therefore the Master in Archival Studies is very welcome and now available also in Slovenia. It provides the necessary skills for successful work at the creators of archives and records, and in professional state archives or archive services. In the practice we are facing very poor professional knowledge in the companies providing long term preservation of records. The state will have to strengthen its role in ensuring the proper management of records and in archival theory and practice also because those documents that are important for science and culture represent the memory of the nation and are considered as cultural heritage which is protected by law.
