摘要

This chapter discusses the archive digitisation process, from donor agreements to database registration and digital access, of the Ája archive at Ájtte—the Swedish Mountain and Sámi Museum—in Jokkmokk, Sweden, and of the Sami Archives in Inari, Finland. The theoretical frame of the chapter is critical archive studies, which focuses on the efforts of archive institutions to bring about change through decolonisation and exploration of archives, archive documents and archive management. The digitisation project also sought a dissolution of the role of the institution as sole expert and manager by ensuring the inclusion of duodji makers and artists in the archival digitisation processes.
