Summary/Abstract: The publication, divided into thematic blocks, provides an overview of archival issues in the broad context of the processes of shaping European archives, cooperation between them and the role archives play in society. The first part includes, among others texts on attempts to create a great European archive by Napoleon Bonaparte and contemporary tools for cooperation between the archives of a united Europe (European Archive Portal, ARENA projects, AREA and others). The second part deals with the interesting issue of the formation of archival science as a science and the development of archives in a situation of subordination to oppressive political systems in the interwar period (Germany, USSR), war (based on the fate of the Vilnius archives) and post-war (PRL). The third part includes texts on various Polish archives and methods used in archives, in the context of their practical use and in relation to the place that archives occupy in social life. The publication is summed up by a text discussing the French National Archives in Pierrefitte-sur-Seine as an example of a modern archive adapted (at least in intention) to the needs of modern users.
