Librarians and archivists lay out questions and methods that are exemplary of the current state of archival and recordkeeping research in the archival multiverse, encompassing the pluralism of evidentiary texts, memory-keeping practices and institutions, bureaucratic and personal motivations, community perspectives and needs, and cultural and legal constructs. They do not address the evolving scope, frameworks, and infrastructure of archival and recordkeeping research or practice, but refer readers to studies that do. Among the topics are a history of archival ideas and practice in China, introducing critical race theory to archival discourse, capacities and complexities, and examining activism in practice.
