Subject: [Ica-l] ICA-ISIAH (International Standard for Institutions with
Archival Holdings / Norme internationale pour les institutions
conservant des archives / Norma Internacional para las Instituciones que
custodian recursos archivísticos)
ICA/Committee on Best Practices and Standards
ISIAH - Call for comments
To complement ISAD(G) and ISAAR(CPF), the Committee of Best Practices
and Standards of the International Council of Archives (ICA/CBPS) has
developed a new international standard providing guidance for preparing
descriptions of institutions with archival holdings (ISIAH -
International Standard for Institutions with Archival Holdings).
Information about the institution which has custody of archival
materials is essential for users to access these archival holdings. In
addition to the overview of fonds and collections, guides usually
include general information about archival institutions that hold
documents and the services they provide. With the Internet, it is
increasingly important for users to connect records descriptions to
relevant information on their custodians. Without this information, the
users are unable to access the archives.
ISAD(G) provides guidance for the description of fonds and their
component parts. ISAAR(CPF) provides guidance to record authority
information about the creators of archives. For a consistent archival
information system the description of the same entity as creator or as
custodian requires different approaches and elements of description.
This is the purpose of ISIAH, which provides rules for preparing
standardised descriptions of institutions which have custody of
archives. ISIAH can also be applied to cultural institutions other than
archives.
Furthermore, the possibility of describing archival institutions, as
separate entities, may be useful for generating authority lists or
directories of archival institutions, as well for establishing
connections with similar authority lists of cultural heritage
institutions at the regional, national and international level.
Like ISAD(G) and ISAAR(CPF), the future standard will be available in
English and in French. Translations in other languages are strongly
encouraged. They should follow the Guidelines for the Translation of
Standards of the Committee on descriptive Standards, available at
http://www.icads.org.uk/eng/translation.htm
The draft of standard is available on ICA website (http://www.ica.org).
Comments can be sent to Claire Sibille, ICA/CBPS secretary
([log in to unmask]). The deadline for the reception of the
comments is: 31st October. The comments received will be integrated into
the text of the standard and the final English and French versions will
be prepared by ICA/CBPS. Then, ICA/CBPS will send the approved standard
accompanied by a summary of development process and opinions expressed
to ICA/PCOM for approval and submission to Executive Board for
endorsement. The first version of ISIAH should be presented in the
International Congress on archives at Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) in 2008.
We are at your disposal for any further information. Thank you in
advance for your reactions and comments.
