Description: Community Archives : The Shaping of Memory, Hardcover by Bastian, Jeannette A. (EDT); Alexander, Ben (EDT), ISBN 1856046397, ISBN-13 9781856046398, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This volume is less a how-to book than a collection of well written essays on the existence and creation of archives that preserve cultural heritage and their intersection with social issues. Drawing on examples from not only the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and Canada, it also explores the existence of records in Fiji, Chile, St. Kitts and even an archive dedicated to the issue of leprosy on the island of Culion in the Philippines. Edited by Bastian (archives, Simmons College) and Alexander (library and information science, City U. of New York), this work covers non-traditional record keeping, records loss, destruction, and recovery, and the existence of online communities as well as new technologies that enable the creation of sound archives and blogs.
