Gilliland and Marijana Tomić Editors In 2009, the Summer School in the Study of Old Books was organised by the Department of Library and Information Science of the Universi- ty of Zadar. The Summer School was open to students from Zadar and from other schools in the region and across Europe. That event, which resulted in the first publication of proceedings in this series, brought together experts addressing current scholarship and developments in practice relating to old and rare books. It was specifically intended to feature aspects that are prominent in or distinctive to Croatia and/or southeastern Europe as well as the state of the art elsewhere in Europe and the United States. Following the success of this event, another Summer School was organised at the University of Zadar in 2011 in the Study of Historical Manuscripts. It took a similar approach and broad- ened its scope to include expertise from Armenia. In contemplating a similar event for 2013 we decided to address a trio of related areas that have historical, cultural and contemporary facets and relevance and that have become increasingly important areas of research and practice: records and recordkeeping; archives and archival practice; and memory studies and issues of remembering and forgetting. These are also areas in which, in addition to old and rare books and historical manuscripts, the University of Zadar’s re- cently retitled Department of Information Sciences, has been devel- oping new Master’s and doctoral curricula, and so they were seen to be particularly timely. To address this ambitious scope we expanded the Summer School to include a conference and invited the partici- pation of leading scholars and professionals from Australia, Austria, Croatia, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, the Netherlands, the United King- dom and the United States. This volume includes selected refereed papers from that event that, while not intended to be all-encompassing, nevertheless high- light a thought-provoking diversity of issues and approaches and draw upon several disciplines including the information sciences, archivistics, history, librarianship and digital humanities. The en- 7 tire volume begs interesting questions about cultural heritage and also about humanities and social science research. For example, how is cultural heritage and historical viewed differently by the different professions involved with its identification, preservation, description and use? How do archives and other memory institutions reconcile humanities and social science research agendas and associated digital developments with exigencies to address very different kinds of user needs emerging out of human and civil rights concerns? Might we perhaps design new systems to better address both more effectively? We believe that the volume also both addresses and augments our ongoing objective of juxtaposing and interfacing key develop- ments in different geographic regions that have their own histories, cultures and documentary forms and considerations (especially those in southeastern and also central and eastern Europe that are not al- ways featured in English language monographs), with global concerns such as standards for the description and exchange of information about cultural heritage, or rights and ethics considerations. For ex- ample, even within the archival field, archivists are not all reading or even able to access the same literatures. Despite the standardization of many professional practices internationally, much theoretical work developed in the Anglo tradition (especially the United Kingdom, North America and Australia) has not taken into account the concep- tual ideas that underpin some of the non-English-speaking European traditions. Moreover, those traditions themselves have a variety of historical relationships between archives, libraries, manuscript
