PERSPEKTIVE RAZVOJA KOMPJUTERIZACIJE – ELEMENTI
PERSPECTIVE OF INFORMATIZATION DEVELOPMENT - ELEMENTS

Summary/Abstract: I am certain that the archivists will find so much common strength and mutual understanding in their institutions, and that they will move down the road of greater development of computerisation , as they have done up till this moment.This development should be standardised, although the archives which have gone one step ahead should not wait those which have not, but they should help others to overcome the obstacles as soon as pos­ sible. The greater solidarity among the archives woul not harm. It would be good to esteem the experiences and opinions of those archivists who have affirm themselves in this field of work in their country and abroad. They should be, first of all, engaged and supported in the realisation of certain projects. Some colleagues have already pointed out certain fields which will be further developed in future by the help of computers. DR. Miroslav Novak from the Provincial Archives Maribor states that "the computerisation and implementation of the computer technology into the archives have reached the level which enables the globalisation of the exchange of the information, not only within the national but also at the internatio­ nal level". Personally, I do not see the obstacles in the more successful further development of the archives' computerisation, I am convinced that the archivists will convey the computerisation in their archives, with a little of good will, better than before. Nevertheless, that will also depend from their uniformed approach before the archives' establishers and financiers, in other words, from the acquisition of greater financial means. Their legitimate expectations for acquisition of greater financial means they should be explained by the fact that those means are necessary in order to meet the numerous requirements of the archival material's users and to preserve the written cultural inheritance, viz. the remembrance of a nation.
