Employees of state archives in the 100th anniversary of their formation. An attempt at group portrayal

Abstract

Despite the fact that an employee of contemporary state archives has several years of experience in the field and is used to perform almost all tasks within the archives domain, he/she also specializes in specific areas, especially archival research, resource development, files sharing and scientific information. A high level of education enables him/her to accomplish primary tasks of the archives, which has been revealed in a survey conducted among the state archives’ personnel. Based on its results, the author draws a portarait of a contemporary state archivist and tries to pinpoint the most serious problems that the state archives face these days.
