The subject of the office and 'archive' of the Library in the years 1923-1939 has never been discussed before in any literature. Thus, the work is based almost exclusively on the sources which were not sufficient to present the issue thoroughly. However, through the analysis of the source material it was possible to reveal the relation between the office of the Municipality of Torun (later the City Board) and the office in the Library, at least in the first years of its activity. The probability that the Library copied the regulations of the municipal office is confirmed in the Library's acts from that period, where one can find traces of applying the regulations of 1931 and 1934. The research shows that the office of the Library in the first period of its activity did not have a complicated structure as only one person dealt with office work. By the outbreak of the war the modern non-register system had been introduced in the office and the lists of acts started to be used to help. The circulation of documents depended on the employed office system, the number of workers taking part in it and how complicated the inner structure in the institution was. The place where documents were stored was adapted to conditions existing in the institution. The conclusion is the office worked well despite the lack of its own norms.

This paper examines the mission and the day-to-day activities of the Slovak National Archive (SNA) in Bratislava from its inception in 1954, but especially in the last thirty years since its transfer to its current purpose-built headquarters. The paper consists of two parts, the first of which surveys the history of the Slovak archival studies from its beginnings to 1950 as well as the institutional history of SNA‘s predecessors. The second part then examines the mission, day-to-day activities and the internal structure of SNA as an archive and a scientific and cultural institution.

The present study draws supports from the findings which were provided to the author in the Slovak National Archive. The findings relate to unpublished writings by the Slovak prose writer and essayist Vladimír Mináč which were banned by the Head Office of Print Media Supervision established in 1953. This is one of the reasons why the study is composed as a commented reading – the author gives more space to retelling the contents of particular works, which is supported by quotations and selected extracts. The individual findings are set in the framework of historical archive materials and texts included in the circulation of information. The examples of the censorship of Mináč´s writings are used to identify the changes in Mináč´s poetics as well as to show various censorship strategies – from explicit bans to various euphemistic and hidden forms of „dissolved censorship“ (explicit and implicit censorship), where the censorship becomes less and less „visible“ and the writer himself gradually adopts the discourse which is identical to the defined positions of the official canon.

Regardless of the increasingly frequent hybridization processes of fiction and nonfiction, and of the analysis of medial propaganda, the function of nonfiction or documentary films as epistemic media is still dominant. What is mostly emphasized, however, is the learning function of nonfiction for the viewers. The fact that documentary films are always mainly subjective testimonies about this reality however hard they try to act from the position of an epistemic authority, is mostly forgotten. Yet, the responsibility for the statement and for the dedication to the subject of the filmed research is where the subjectivity of the testimony of the documentary maker lies. This responsibility is also projected into the forms in which the documentary filmmakers create an archive of the present for the future. This study deals with the reflection of the post-November history of Slovakia as the latest layer of communication memory, closely tied to the formation of the modern identity of the country. Its goal is to examine what image of the present is created by nonfiction films for the future. In other words, what rhetoric and narrative tropes, or what conspiration structures, are used by the documentary makers to construct knowledge about the socio-political reality.

This paper examines the fate of the family and economic archives of the Andrássy family after the confiscation of the property complex in Betliar and Krásna Hôrka after the World War II. Complicated property rights and changes in ownership resulted in the fact that the archives were put into keeping of the Agricultural Archives in Bratislava. Local government and the administration of the State Cultural Estate in Betliar, who managed the remains of Betliar and Krásna Hôrka Castle as museums, sought to keep this family archive in its original place. However, this resulted in a forced transport of parts of this archive into the branch of the Agricultural Archives in Levoča.

The central motif of the essay is a critical examination of the archival turn in contemporary art. Through the lens of the notions such as “performativity”, “memory”, and theories devoted to interpreting the archive, the text builds on authors who have explored this phenomenon in contemporary art. The main focus of this essay is on the expanded documentary practice by Lucia Nimcová, her works relocating and reactivating archival photographs, in which I detect emancipatory potential that could possibly inspire those methodologies in art history that deal with the socialist past in Central and Eastern Europe.

This paper examines the history, structure and the activities of the Inspectorate-General of Archives and Libraries in Slovakia between 1919 and 1951. Two renowned historians occupied the post of Inspector General: Václav Chaloupecký, a Czech by birth, and Branislav Varsik. In their role, both these scholars of historiography and history who pioneered these subjects at the Comenius University expended great amounts of time and effort to protect a number of important archives. They laid also the groundwork for the establishment of a truly unified and national network of archives whose mission would be to safeguard the nation‘s cultural heritage and make it available to the general public.

A Polish artist Jozef Robakowski founded the Exchange Gallery in Lodz, Poland in 1978. It was a gallery in name only. Its true function was to unofficially serve as an archive and a meeting place for artists. The materials in the archive were of equal value; they were an expression of independent communication, mutual respect and shared opposition towards the communist regime. In 2003, Robakowski began to prepare a donation of the archive of the Exchange Gallery to the Muzeum Sztuki (Art Museum) in Lodz.
