Supervision
I would be happy to supervise doctoral students wanting to work on aspects of archival theory and practice. I am especially interested in the ways in which memory and authenticity are viewed in the archive, and how this influences the ways in which archivists work and interact with users.
I currently supervise postgraduate research students with the following projects:
- Transcription vs. Translation: Facilitating an Archive of Memory
- Unnatural Archives - Iraqi Archives in the USA
- Atuma, Kenneth
Record keeping and accountability in the Nigerian public sector: user perspective
