For thousands of years, people have consciously been recording and storing information. First, it was done in writing, later pictures and sound. Documentation was previously stored in archives. Nowadays, the ideas are recorded using binary code in data storage media or in a computing cloud. Studying archives and document management gives our graduates the keys to this exceptionally interesting world. Studying at our Institute you can find out how modern archives – institutions, organizational units operating in most Polish institutions and digital data collections function. We are teaching how to search for information for various purposes, scientific and practical. We also show how the documentation should be read , also “between the lines”.
