This book traces the trajectory of the community archives movement,
expanding the definition of community archives to include sites
such as historical societies, social movement organisations and
community centres. It also explores new definitions of what
community archives might encompass, particularly in relation to
disciplines outside the archives. Over ten years have passed since
the first volume of Community Archives, and inspired by continued
research as well as by the formal recognition of community archives
in the UK, the community archives movement has become an important
area of research, recognition and appreciation by archivists,
archival scholars and others worldwide. Increasingly the subject of
papers and conferences, community archives are now seen as being in
the vanguard of social concerns, markers of community-based
activism, a participatory approach exemplifying the on-going
evolution of ‘professional’ archival (and heritage) practice
and integral to the ability of people to articulate and assert
their identity. Community Archives, Community Spaces reflects the
latest research and includes practical case studies on the
challenges of building and sustaining community archives. This new
book will appeal to practitioners, researchers, and academics in
the archives and records community as well as to historians and
other scholars concerned with community building and social issues.
