- The aim of the seminar is to introduce students to practical knowledge, experience and issues related to digital archival science, which includes the care and handling of digital-born documents, working with programmes and database systems used in archival practice and the area of digitalization of archive materials including making them available in the virtual environment. There is a need for a close link with existing practice in the Czech Republic, which is very variable in view of the dynamic development of the field. Some of the seminars will be carried out as practical exercises with archival registration and information systems directly in selected archives (Brno City Archive).
