This paper defines anddiscusses archival representation and its rolein archival practice. Archival representationrefers to both the processes of arrangement anddescription and is viewed as a fluid, evolving,and socially constructed practice. The paperanalyzes organizational and descriptiveschemas, tools, and systems as a means ofuncovering representational practices.
