archiefmodel

Archiefmodel refers to a conceptual framework or standard for organizing, describing, and preserving archival materials. It provides a structured approach to managing the lifecycle of records, from their creation or reception to their eventual disposition or permanent preservation. Key elements of an archiefmodel typically include principles for appraisal, arrangement, description, access, and preservation. The goal is to ensure the authenticity, integrity, usability, and long-term survival of archival holdings. Different archiefmodels may exist, often tailored to the specific needs of an institution or the type of records being managed. These models help archivists maintain consistency and efficiency in their work. They also facilitate interoperability and the sharing of archival information across different institutions. The development and implementation of archiefmodels are crucial for effective archival management in the digital age, addressing challenges related to born-digital records and the increasing volume of information. By following a standardized model, archives can better fulfill their mission of safeguarding cultural heritage and providing access to historical evidence.
