Abstract
Croatian State Archives fonds entitled Maps Archives for Croatia and Slavonia comprises of stored cadastral records for the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia, made by a cadastral survey from 1847 to 1877 (so called ‘first stable cadastral’) and by later reambulations and changes. So called Imperial Geodetic Maps Archives were founded during the cadastral survey where all the incurred cadastral records were stored. When the Maps Archives was founded, special aimed instructions were passed for the preservation of the cadastral records, as well as numerous legal acts determining the way of preservation, availability and lending, both within and outside the Archives rooms. The first instruction for map archivists was given in 1826 for Maps Archives of the Austrian Littoral in Trieste. Numerous instructions, orders and regulations were later also passed for Maps Archives of Croatia and Slavonia, in accordance with problems and damages of the records originating in the Archives during their accessing and lending. Detailed instructions were given on how to protect the records from physical-chemical, biological and mechanical damage. This article publishes Regulation from 1880 in its original form, together with reports on inquests of Maps Archives of Croatia-Slavonia that determined and widened the preservation system in the Archives, both of them leaning on the Instruction from 1826. The article analyses similarities and differences in these instructions. In order to analyse preservation of cadastral records that were very often used, made available and transferred (borrowed) outside Maps Archives even while they were still in form of registry records, the article presents the preservation system of cadastral records kept today in fonds Map Archives for Croatia and Slavonia in Croatian State Archives. The article describes the way of custody, using, availability and long term plans regarding preservation. Finally, the article analyses protection of total cadastral records in the fonds according to the number of cadastral municipalities, regardless of the cadastral records type.
