Summary/Abstract: As a result of several factors, in recent years, archiving in Kosovo has not been developed at high institutional levels.Managerial neglect to the extent of abuse in the last years before the war, lack of investment for optimal material conditions (technical-technological and spatial) as well as for the profiling of staff, become negative factors that hinder progressive progress in the professional work of archives. Consequently, the current situation is characterized by multidimensional aspects, which challenge the establishment and development of this activity.In terms of content, these challenges are related to low quality and insufficient legislation, registrations, their work and the state of documentation - archive material they manage, the lack of bylaws and especially its (non) implementation, lack of optimal housing conditions. , i.e. storage of archival material, for its protection and storage in their intended spaces, with the lack of equipment for air conditioning, for protection from moisture, rodents, mold, etc., with the lack of qualified and profiled staff.Such a situation is by no means even better today in public archival institutions, starting from the local to the central level (Archives in municipalities and other local institutions, Inter-Municipal Archives and the State Agency of Archives of Kosovo). The reflection of this situation in the "gro-plan", some ideas and reference proposals for facing these challenges and overcoming them are the objective and effort that are intended to be achieved with my brief elaboration within this topic.
