Archives Academic Libraries Information Management Cultural Background Campuses Information Technology Library Role Information Sources Educational History Higher Education Cultural Maintenance College and university archivists face changes in their responsibilities that place at risk their ability to document the history of their institutions. Educational institutions that preserve, make known, and promote their history create a strong and lively institutional identity. This identity can be shaped and boosted through documenting history, traditions, campus buildings, and campus personalities as well as through the variety of materials collected by archivists. It is key for archivists in light of changing media and the burden of increased record keeping to keep a keen insight in finding materials that preserve institution identity and culture.
