    Powstanie i rozwój archiwów diecezjalnych w Polsce
    Zegzuła, Weronika (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2021)
    Polish church archives began to develop along with the restoration of independence in 1918. Until the outbreak of the war in 1939, there were 6 diocesan archives. After the World War II, Poland found itself in a new political reality. The so-called „people‘s authority” treated archives, including church archives marginally. The Church and its resources looked through the lens of the remnants of feudalism, which had to be destroyed. In order to achieve that, the authority sought complete confiscation of church archives, which were to depend solely on state officials. The Church had to find its place in a new political reality and face the actions of the authorities to annihilate the ecclesiastical administration. Among the administrative activities of the church authorities, maintaining an autonomous structure and providing personnel for pastoral activities were undoubtedly more important. It is understandable that in such a situation, as a priority, the Church could not deal with archival matters. Despite incredible difficulties, after 1945 the Archdiocesan Archive in Wrocław resumed their activities. Archives were created in Pelplin and Włocławek. In 1974 there were 7 archdiocesan archives and 20 diocesan archives. In 1989, the number of diocesan archives increased to 24 and in 2002 to 32. Establishment of the Association of Church Archivists (SAK) in Warsaw on 17 June 2004 was a breakthrough event for diocesan archives. The main task of the Association is to organize, provide access to, and inventory church archives. Its members continue the Polish archival tradition and „the great service to ecclesiastical and national science”.
