Keeping (and Telling) the Past

“Fictional Archivists Out in the Open,” an essay by Burkely Hermann, from the Society of American Archivists Issues and Advocacy Section Forum


Archivists on the Issues (I&A) is a forum for archivists to discuss issues faced today. In the post here, Hermann writes of books, animated series, films, and other media in which archivists appear. Hermann is Metadata Librarian for the National Security Archive and current I&A Blog Coordinator. The article begins with images of “eight archivists-of-sorts.”
