TRAINING THE ARCHIVIST AS A NECESSITY FOR THE PERFECTION OF WORK WITH DOCUMENTS

Summary/Abstract: The archivist figure is appointed to the tradition, culture and the preservation of cultural heritage and its legacy to future generations. The more professionally prepared an archivist is, the more evident the reflection of this legacy becomes. The need for qualified archivists has always been a necessity. Although archivistics is generally recognized as a manual science, this does not mean that it cannot embrace technological change. A well-informed archivist is always an added capacity to protect in the face of contemporary and on-going documentation. In order to be a specialized archivist it’s not enough to be a traditional archivist, nor to have learned the base program of knowledge in the archivist’s field. Today a specialized archivist must be capable of breaking the risen barriers between the archival document and the researcher, between tradition and advanced technology, between the will to open archives and the information guarantee. The archivist’s profession, today more than ever, needs harmony between theory and practice, basic principles of archiving, various disciplines with archiving and history.
