* Archival policy and ethics (e.g. privacy, intellectual property, cultural property, indigenous rights, public records access)
* History and standards of the archival profession and memory institutions
* Tools and systems for recordkeeping and digital curation (design, development, evaluation)
* Cultural memory and issues of representation
* Community and participatory archives
* International and comparative archivistics
* Archival engagement with and among specific populations
* Curation of particular documentary forms (e.g. film, social media, rare books) 
* Archival user communities and user needs

We welcome applicants from a diverse range of disciplines that can contribute to investigation of the issues described above. Regardless of discipline, a successful candidate is one who is passionate about both investigating and advancing the work of memory institutions.
