* * On behalf of the Department of Library and Information Sciences of the
University of Zadar, Croatia and co-organizers we are pleased to invite you
to the third in the series of schools that the Department organizes around
the cultural heritage topics. The first two topics dealt with in the school
were old books and historical manuscripts, while this one is focused on
archives.



The main goal of this *Conference and School on Records, Archives and
Memory Studies *is to acquaint participants with the latest developments
and new concepts in the field of archival studies with the aim of providing
them with an overview of the landscape of contemporary approach to archival
studies. The lecture on archival and recordkeeping ideas and theories:
past, present and future will give an introduction to the school which will
cover the following topics: memory and cultural studies, reading the
document from historian, paleographer, local scholar etc. point of view,
archival research design and methods, archival theory and models, archives
in society, and pedagogy.



The school is targeted primarily at doctoral students in library and
information sciences and cultural heritage studies in general, and
archival studies, preservation and conservation studies in particular.
It is also targeted at those students in the final years of their
graduate studies, as well as practitioners in the fields. We encourage
post-doctoral students and faculty members to take part in the school
too.



The form of the school will allow primarily students, but also other
participants to actively participate in discussions after the lectures,
choose a topic of interest among lectures presented during sessions, and
elaborate it with the lecturer within afternoon workshop sessions. During
the PhD Forum a couple of doctoral students? research proposals will
bereviewed by a panel of professors.



The Conference and School on Records, Archives and Memory Studies is
organized as part of the Department of Library and Information Sciences of
the University of Zadar?s PhD Programme *Knowledge Society and Information
Transfer*.





PhD Forum will be organized by *Ph.D. PROGRAMME Knowledge Society and
