"Wiesława K w i a t k o w s k a , A General Model of Processing Archival Collections and Collation
of Social Organisations’ Records. The article shows specific problems characteristic of the collation
of social organisations’ records. As a basis, archivists may use a general model of processing archive
collections which was formed in the early days of Polish archival science, and developed and supplemented
over the following years. The model is founded on principle of provenience determining
the activities undertaken, and, as a consequence, the method of fonds reconstruction is applied. When
processing archival materials of social organisations, an archivist encounters difficulties at almost all
stages of his/her work: preliminary studies, division and aggregation of fonds, document disposal,
selection of a collation method, proper collation, cataloguing, working on an introduction to the catalogue
and other aids. The problems mainly arise out of the condition of a particular office and
records produced there. It refers to those associations in the case of which there was no organised
office and files are created provisionally, inconsistently and have no logical layout. In such situations,
the principle of the office of origin which determines optimal methods of collating records becomes
less important. Deciding to apply a particular solution, an archivist has to step in the role of a writer
and only a good knowledge of regulatory environment, organisations, functions, all forms of operation
and documents produced then may bring optimal results."
