I am currently working on a dissertation paper on archival ethics for my MA in Archives and Records Management at UCL. I am looking at case studies relating to ethical issues which have arisen in the profession, alongside a number of the English language Codes of Ethics. My primary aim is to establish whether there are any gaps in the Codes in relation to what is actually happening in the profession, as well as whether the Codes cover issues that do not generally arise in the day-to-day work of the archivist. I am interested in gathering information on case studies of both large-scale national cases and the smaller day-to-day ones. Obtaining information on smaller scale issues, though, is obviously a rather difficult task as they are very rarely documented. For this reason, I would be greatly appreciative if anyone has any information on ethical dilemmas they have faced in the archival profession that they would be willing to share with me. Of course, any responses will be treated as confidential and no personal details will be disclosed in any of the work I submit. Please send any replies off list to [log in to unmask] Many thanks, Rachael _________________________________________________________________ Txt a lot?
