Archival Pedagogies

Archival pedagogy – the teaching of archival knowledge and skills – is practiced worldwide but remains under-examined in the scholarly and professional literature of archival studies. What might we learn about, and how might we deepen our practice in archival pedagogy if there was more international exchange on the topic? That question drove the compilation of Archival Pedagogies, a new edited collection that brings together some of the leading archival educators from across the globe, with an equally international editorial team and editorial board, to explore the frameworks, methods, contents and challenges of teaching recordkeepers and records users.
