Abstract
In June 2003 Section for Municipal Archives (SMA) of the International Council on Archives (ICA) started the work on the World Bibliography on the Municipal Archives. Austria, as the host of the forthcoming ICA Congress, was obligated to make the bibliography for the Central and East Europe, and asked for help in gathering bibliographical units concerning archives as institutions.
The starting point in preparing bibliography was Arhivski fondovi i zbirke u arhivima i arhivskim odjelima u Socijalističkoj Republici Hrvatskoj (Guide through Archival Fonds and Collections in the Republic of Croatia), published in 1984. Along with this source, library catalogs and reference works were consulted as well, and all regional archives were asked to send lists of editions concerning their institutions published after 1984, which they all did. While collecting data for the contribution about our regional archives, the need for the bibliography of editions about all state archives in the Republic of Croatia was recognized, because the last work of that kind was completed, as it has already been mentioned, twenty years ago. For that reason, bibliography about the Croatian State Archives was added to the original bibliography. Since included references cover only works about archives as institutions, this work can, in that sense, in the future, serve as the basis of some more comprehensive bibliography.
