Description

Sorbonne University's archives and records service was created in 2018 following the fusion of the two previous archives services and missions of Sorbonne University's predecessor universities. Since 2019, it has been attached to the university's library department, and its missions have continued to evolve both in the context of the massive digitization of the institution's processes and in the favorable context of the development of the open science policy promoted by its management. Research data, personal data protection, long-term preservation, as well as scientific heritage, archival descriptions and digitization...
In this presentation, we propose to start by taking a brief review of the evolution of the position of the archives service, both in terms of the exercise of its perimeter and the evolution of the missions of its archivists. We will then focuses at the collaborations, fruitful or not, with the various actors of the university, and, finally, we will try a prospective exercise on the perspectives of consolidation and development of its missions in a French context in full evolution.
