'Changing Practice' means moving from where you are to somewhere new, taking some of the present and the past with you. One paper in session 8 addresses the necessity of applying principle-based description to the variety and complexity of recordkeeping systems that archivists now encounter; another, an example of uniting legacy practices and duplicated collections. The third is a meditation on an archive that straddles the shift in formats, from handwriting to computer-generated media, and the inevitable questions raised about archives in the current 'post-script' era.
