Im 16 And Im Always Sick



I decided to publish some of my virtual library via the application Evernote. You will find links and RSS feeds related to my page before, at this address .

The library consists of links, documents, bookmarks, articles, etc.. gleaned from the web through my research and my watch and I want to keep track. Classification (perhaps temporary) into three categories: heritage, archives and records management technologies. As for the keywords (tags), be forgiving, I think again ...

Happy reading!

In Canada (III) - The top DOCAM

I had the opportunity to attend the weekend summit last DOCAM in Montreal and the results were presented to me seemed interesting enough for me to make echo here.

DOCAM is a research group sponsored by the Daniel Langlois Foundation has for five years, brought together researchers, curators, students, art historians, etc.. around the theme of conservation of works of art media as they say here, that is to say works of art including new media and technology (video, sound, software, etc.).. The basic finding was indeed that museums do little or no concern that these collections are very specific and, often, when they wanted to, they were clueless about these things they did not master all aspects. Case studies and drawing tools available to museums have been a goal of DOCAM, all underpinned by a genuine debate on issues related to it (obsolescence of hardware and software, data retention, integrity and authenticity of works ...), very close to our concern archivists, finally!
Ultimately, the work is considerable conservation of these works in their cataloging and presenting them in museum collections, many fields of reflection have been covered, still resting on concrete case studies . This work is now synthesized on this website, where there are many interesting tools, even for us archivists: good practice guidance, advice cataloging, sample records of works sheets of new technologies, interactive timeline, etc..

If you have a few minutes, throw a glance, I think there are things to be gleaned! In addition, the symposium has been fully recorded, it should soon be available on line .

In Canada (II) - Read aloud the archives: here and elsewhere

few months ago, I was on probation in the department which has seen the readings of record on the idea of Jacqueline Ursch, now director of the departmental archives of the Bouches-du-Rhone, This gave me the opportunity to attend some of them and measure all their interest. I have unfortunately not mentioned on this blog and have even less about the book-CD released to celebrate the tenth anniversary of this phenomenon archival Great Lives tiny low-alpine , the Hourglass Publishing. I have not yet had the hands, but given the events that I have consulted, I have no doubt he would do honor to any library archivist.

Let ... As luck that I again crossed paths archives aloud, which gives me a good excuse for you today. Indeed, I attended last week at a reading session conducted by archivists "of the two shores of the Ottawa "on the theme of love, because the session was titled" Valentine's Day in Sainte-Catherine. "Nice theme if it is offering the opportunity to cross many issues (marriage, place of women, adultery, etc.).. Less than dramatized in the Alpes de Haute-Provence puisqu'effectuée by archivists (not actors) and a purlin, the formula has yet again demonstrated its relevance.
So qu'avouons it, it is often difficult to set up an exhibition of archive appealing to an audience of the uninitiated and even more so with the limited resources available to the general archives, I found in the archives reading aloud a powerful force to make citizens with a heritage that is primarily concerned that belongs to them yet but they look so little. Well-chosen texts quickly meet the public and create a genuine emotion in the room.
What I like also in this formula is its flexibility: requiring little money (but a lot of work and good will!), It offers an infinite range of possibilities. Of staging the smaller (just a light and a color worn by the actors) to a musical accompaniment or photography, the choice of theme, instead, texts, how to read or interpret them are no reading is like the previous one and that, contrary to what I thought before you attend, you do not get bored.

results in the Alpes de Haute-Provence are remarkable. I had the opportunity several times to measure their impact: in a very rural department, however, the departmental archives are known and recognized by the majority of the population and elected officials are well aware. The gain in terms of image is significant while the DAs are fully part of the cultural equipment of the department. He certainly had persevere and this is the result of ten years of hard work but the game does it not worth the candle?

In short, you understand that the initiative attracted me and I hope to have the opportunity to implement it one day! And if you still do not see any reading not too far from home and go ...
