Archival Materialities in a Digital Age

Materiality looms large in the world of archives in storage, conservation, and shape or materials of the records. How does this materiality change in the digital age? The way digital techniques and materialities transform our engagement with archives is highlighted and explored throughout Archival Materialities in a Digital Age.

Materiality looms large in the world of archives, whether in storage, conservation, shape or materials of the records. Increasingly records are created digitally on a hitherto unimagined scale. How do born-digital records transform our understanding of the materiality of the archive? How do digital techniques provide new insights into the materiality of older archives? Archival Materialities in a Digital Age contains a series of authoritative studies by archivists and researchers who are grappling with these issues on a daily basis. The research presented in Archival Materialities in a Digital Age shows how these challenges are causing a reconsideration of archival theories and precepts while at the same time offering a huge range of opportunities to investigate archives in new and innovative ways.
