Course objectives
The aim of the course Archive Management and Marketing is to familiarize students with archive management and ways of communicating with the public. The aim is to first place the two topics within a more general context and then to apply them to archival science. The area of management will be focused on management at the level of heads of department of state archives. The theoretical level, defined primarily by the Civil Service Act, will be juxtaposed with findings from practice. The area of management concentrates generally on identifying channels of communication between archives and the public, analysis of them and practical experience of using them.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to:
- search for and assess the quality of public outputs from domestic and foreign archives;
- understand the organizational structures of archives with an emphasis on state archives;
- acquire a knowledge of control mechanisms and the principle of subordination;
- have the ability to apply the provisions of archive and service law to the area of management.
