CHALLENGES AND EXPERIENCES IN ARCHIVES

First day of the conference

We will listen to lectures that discuss modern approaches to using archival records, researching primary sources, and presenting archives in a different way than usual. Specifically, we will learn more about:

• the preparation and implementation of projects that represent important milestones in our region: 
  • the Slovenian electronic archives, 
  • the architect Saša Dev exhibition (UGM and PAM), 
  • the cataloguing of private archival material in the Primož Premzl collection, 
  • the digitization of incunabula in the Incunabula Slovenica project and
  • the use of church registers online.
• innovations in the field of digital preservation.

In the afternoon, we will talk about the procedures for working with film archives, and colleagues from the companies Mikrografija d.o.o. and Trevis d.o.o. will present the latest trends in electronic and traditional preservation of archival records.

This year's evening program will be dedicated to film. In cooperation with the Archives of Bosnia and Herzegovina, we will present an exhibition on film creativity in the 20th century in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In collaboration with the Archives of the Republic of Slovenia and the Slovenian Film Center, we will watch a digitally restored version of the film Vesna.
