Le patrimoine écrit des universités : les débuts d’une reconnaissance

Abstract

The written heritage of french and particularly parisian universities has recently generated interest from the scientific community as well as higher education and research institutions owing to the legal, administrative historical value of these documents. We will first of all focus on the collections held by national and departmental archives institutions, and those collected by the Parisian education authority, the Rectorat of Paris, enriched by the fonds of the education supervision authority (ministry for national education, higher education and research) . Then, we will try to analyze the institutional and regulatory changes that led to the creation of archives departments in universities, together with the establishment of a collecting policy for administrative, educational and scientific records, including through the creation of the AURORE national network and its professional working group in Paris.
