Marek Konstankiewicz - Legal
provisions of archival activity in Poland (legal status
as of 1.10. 2010)
This article attempts in a concise way to present legal
provisions concerning archival activities that are in
force in Poland as of the beginning of 2010. The most
important legal provisions concerning the preservation of
archival materials, structure of public archival
institutions and the appraisal, arrangement, description
and access of state archival holding and the definition of
status of not state archival holding were indicated. They
are in the Constitution of the Republic of Poland of 1997,
in the act on national archival holding and archives of
1983 together with executive orders and a number of other
acts, international agreements and regulations.
The dispersion of these norms among a vast number of legal
acts and numerous and fragmentary changes made to the most
important ones, constitute substantial problems of the
Polish archival law. The other problem is also the
increase of details in provisions concerning broadly
understood circulation of information in society. These
issues should be taken into account during the discussion
on changes in Polish archival law.
