Toward a global view of archival description

Abstract

One of the articles, translated from French, aims to introduce the international efforts that led to unifying the rules related to archival description, and to shed light on the successful initial experiences of the participating countries in developing the first nucleus of the rules of international general codification of archival description. The study presented the efforts of the committee of the International Documentation Council and its most important meetings and what I reached the results.
