Post-custodial approaches in archives

How should we handle archives?

Post-custodialism is a collaborative, non-extractive, mutualistic approach to providing access to archival collections within their original contexts of creation. Collaborations set up in this approach support the development of partners' archival capacity, particularly in the areas of digitization, preservation, arrangement, description, and access.
