Robert Arasimowicz - A letter to the editorial office of AKZ: "Archival variations" on the understanding of public access
to archives
The author in his letter to the editor presents his own vision of carrying out archives’ tasks that arise from the public principle of archives. He
is concerned especially with stagnation and passive role of archives in promoting their collections. To justify his theses the author conducted a
survey among a group of his friends. He asked them four questions that tested their knowledge of archives and archival collections. Answers proved
earlier conjectures to be true and were similar to the author’s experience; they showed that the society has poor knowledge of archives and their
collections. The author proposed some general solutions, referring especially to actions taken by museums.
