Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on archival research and practice, particularly within Australia. It addresses the challenges and opportunities in managing both physical and digital archives, including university archives, digital heritage, and government records. The scope also encompasses the ethical considerations of archival work, such as access to Indigenous heritage records, anti-racist description practices, and the impact of digitisation on researcher access. Furthermore, it explores the intersection of archival science with community engagement, social justice, and the documentation of contemporary societal events like pandemics.
