Dear folks, Does anybody know what countries had developed the concept of "State Archival Fond", as a whole for historical-valued documents created by state authorities? By the ICA Dictionary, solely the former socialist state in the Central/Eastern Europe had used this concept, but I don't find any reference of SAF for Hungary and Eastern Germany. Thanks, Bogdan-Florin POPOVICI, Ph.D. Archivist Brasov ROMANIA ____________________ [log in to unmask] [log in to unmask] [log in to unmask] +40268 511363 +40724 266043 A posting from the Archives & Archivists LISTSERV List sponsored by the Society of American Archivists, www.archivists.org.
