"Archive Activism is a memoir of activism rooted in a new way to converse with history by rescuing it. Archive activists discover documents and other important materials often classified, "gone missing," or sealed that somehow escaped the fireplace or shredder. It is an approach to LGBTQ advocacy and policy activism based on citizen archivery and original archival research to effect social change. Research=Activism is the formula growing out of Charles Francis's personal story as a gay Texan born and raised during the 1950s and 1960s in Dallas. The rescues range in time and place from Francis's first encounter with a raucous, near-violent religious demonstration in Fort Worth to attics loaded with forgotten historic treasures of LGBTQ pioneers. Archive Activism tells how Francis helped Governor George W. Bush achieve his dream of becoming president in 2000 by reaching out to gay and lesbian supporters, the first time a Republican candidate for president formally met with gay and lesbian Americans. This inspired Francis to engage with deleted LGBTQ history by forming a historical society with an edge, a new Mattachine Society of Washington, DC. For the first time, Archive Activism reveals how LGBTQ secrets were held for decades at the LBJ Presidential Library in the papers of President Johnson's personal secretary, sealed until her death at age 105. Mattachine's signature discovery is a federal attorney's classified assault blandly filed under "Suitability" at the National Archives: "What it boils down to is that most men look upon homosexuality as something uniquely nasty." Archive Activism is not only a memoir but also an essential roadmap for activists from any group armed only with their library cards"-- Provided by publisher.

• Conclusion

"This open access book addresses the protection of privacy and personality rights in public records, records management, historical sources, and archives; and historical and current access to them in a broad international comparative perspective. Considering the question “can archiving pose a security risk to the protection of sensitive data and human rights?”, it analyses data security and presents several significant cases of the misuse of sensitive personal data, such as census data or medical records. It examines archival inflation and the minimisation and reduction of data in public records and archives, including data anonymisation and pseudonymisation, and the risks of deanonymisation and reidentification of persons. The book looks at post-mortem privacy protection, the relationship of the right to know and the right to be forgotten and introduces a specific model of four categories of the right to be forgotten. In its conclusion, the book presents a set of recommendations for archives and records management"-- Provided by publisher

With chapters from established and emerging scholars in the field of archival studies, Disputed Archival Heritage extends and enriches the conversation that started with the earlier volume, Displaced Archives. Advancing novel theories and methods for understanding disputes and claims over archives, the volume includes chapters that focus on Indigenous records in settler colonial states; literary and community archives; sub-national and private sector displacements; successes in repatriating formerly displaced archives; comparisons with cultural objects seized by colonial powers; and the relationship between repatriation and reparations. Analysing key concepts such as joint heritage and provenance, the contributors unsettle Western understandings of records, place and ownership. Disputed Archival Heritage speaks to the growing interest in shared archival heritage, repatriation of cultural artefacts and cultural diasporas. As such, it will be a useful resource for academics, students and practitioners working in the field of archives, records, and information management, as well as cultural property and heritage management, peace and conflict studies and international law.

'In the early 1680s a land surveyor called William Hill drew maps and made surveys of estates at Longford, Church Aston and Newport in Shropshire. In this volume we print Hill's work and identify both him and the owner of the estate he mapped. We also show that Hill's maps and surveys are only a part of a much larger volume of maps and surveys of the estates of Thomas Talbot of Longford, now dispersed, and that he also worked for Talbot's cousins, the earls of Shrewsbury. The volume then gathers together other eighteenth-century sources for these generally poorly documented estates. Drawing on Hill's survey, the introduction describes the Talbot estate in and around Longford in the 1680s including its landscape. It then gives an account of their development in the eighteenth century before they were broken up by sale in 1787-88.' -- Details from publisher

'One of the many developments in royal justice under the early Tudors was the Court of Requests. Comprised of men working in the king's attendant household and council, Requests heard and determined all manner of interpersonal disputes presented by ordinary people from across England, Wales, and beyond. Its procedures of summoning subjects under subpoena, ordering investigative commissions, and gathering for hearings brought a wide range of people into contact with the royal administration. These volumes calendar the entries from the Court's earliest books of orders and decrees, from their commencement in 1493 through to 1538. It also prints selected decrees, lists entries by county, and provides indexes for names and places. These records allow us to glimpse the daily procedures of justice-giving in this transformational period, as well as the people they served.' -- Details from publisher

This research-focused book provides a legal analysis and systematic assessment of how African institutions manage digital records in four countries (i.e., Botswana, Kenya, South Africa, and Zimbabwe). It also examines the extent to which records are managed using Internet-based applications, trust in such records, and digital record authentication to support the auditing process. Finally, it provides a curriculum analysis in digital records at institutions of higher learning in thirty-eight African countries. The book's case studies illustrate the threads of discussion, which span the ITrust domains of legislation, infrastructure, authentication, trust, and education in archives and records management. The book can be used as a premier reference source by private and public organisations, researchers, educators, archivists, records managers, and postgraduate students to make informed decisions about digital records, records management systems, cloud-based services, authenticating records, and identifying universities on the continent that offer archival programmes. The book may also find expression to practitioners in other fields such as law and auditing.

"Les archives ont suscité et suscitent encore de très nombreux conflits. Mais quelles en sont les circonstances et les raisons ? Quels acteurs prennent part aux disputes autour des archives ? Sous quelles formes et avec quels effets ? Fruit du programme "Conflits d'archives", ce livre propose une approche comparatiste, diachronique et pluridisciplinaire des processus conflictuels envisagés dans leurs diverses dimensions : politique, juridique, sociale, symbolique et mémorielle. La création et la configuration des archives, les archives de minorités et d'associations, l'ouverture et les destructions des archives sont tour à tour examinées dans cette perspective. Vingt historiens, archivistes, anthropologues et juristes développent des études de cas situées en France, en Espagne et en Méditerranée, de la fin du Moyen Âge au temps présent. Par la voie originale des conflits, l'ouvrage entend contribuer au vigoureux renouvellement actuel des recherches menées sur les archives et leur histoire."--Page 4 of cover.
