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.
This book gathers authors from various countries, most of whom present local, context-specific perspectives on the subject, describing the archival-pedagogical landscape they are most familiar with. This approach enables readers to gain insight into different challenges and methods in archival education. Such an understanding can inspire reflection on local strategies and programs of study, potentially leading to widened understandings of other professional contexts, new thinking about the curriculum and its delivery, and the mutual exchange of instructional practices. Just as it benefits practice, for instance in technical innovation, standards setting, and cultural diplomacy, cross-cultural exchange has benefits for archival education: such exchange could help shape future pedagogies that prepare students for local specificities within a globalised world.
