The Preservation of Records, Knowledge and Memory (RK&M) Across Generations: Workshop Proceedings

NEA/RWM/RKM(2012)1/FINAL

This RK&M workshop was held at the NEA Headquarters, Issy-les-Moulineaux, France on 11-13 October 2011. Its overarching goal was to scope the field and gain insights that can guide the further development of the RK&M project. It helped to further contextualize and delineate the field, to learn how different practitioners organise and conduct their work in light of different time scales and what they see as crucial issues throughout their efforts, and to investigate the interaction between RK&M and society. This document provides a synthesis of all the workshop presentations and accounts of discussions that were held, as well as a list of lessons learnt for future work within the RK&M project.
