Increasingly records are created digitally on a hitherto unimagined scale. How do born-digital records transform our understanding of the materiality of the archive? How do digital techniques provide new insights into the materiality of older archives? \u003cem\u003eArchival Materialities in a Digital Age\u003c\/em\u003e contains a series of authoritative studies by archivists and researchers who are grappling with these issues on a daily basis. The research presented in \u003cem\u003eArchival Materialities in a Digital Age\u003c\/em\u003e shows how these challenges are causing a reconsideration of archival theories and precepts while at the same time offering a huge range of opportunities to investigate archives in new and innovative ways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEirini Goudarouli, \u003cem\u003eHead of Research, The National Archives, UK\u003c\/em\u003e, Andrew Prescott, \u003cem\u003eHonorary Senior Research Fellow, University of Glasgow\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEirini Goudarouli is Head of Research at The National Archives, UK, where she leads an interdisciplinary team of experts.
