| Abstract: | It is only a few decades ago that archivists befan to redefine their discipline in terms of a science. This redefinition of
archives and records management was the consequence of a growing need for an adequate expression referring to a comprehensive
new body of knowledge on records and archives. Consensus on how to adequately define archival science has not been achieved
yet, however. As information society evolves, records and archives are changing in nature and status. It is an emerging discipline
that has to be defined, which is still bears the impress of the mindset and practices of the industrial society. Bruno Delmas
shows the archivist some clues to find a way out of this ambiguity and keep communicating human heritage to unknown generations. |
