Journal Descriptions

The ESARBICA Journal is a peer-reviewed academic publication of the Eastern and Southern Africa Regional Branch of the International Council on Archives (ESARBICA), a regional body under the International Council on Archives (ICA). Established in 1987, the journal serves as a scholarly platform for researchers, archivists, records managers, and information professionals working across Eastern and Southern Africa and beyond. It publishes original research articles, case studies, theoretical discussions, and reviews focusing on archives management, records management systems, digital preservation, and the protection of documentary heritage. The journal plays a key role in promoting professional standards and research in archival science within the region. It supports discussions on emerging issues such as electronic records management, artificial intelligence in archives, legal frameworks for information governance, and digitization of cultural heritage materials. The ESARBICA Journal is published annually, though some volumes are combined depending on editorial scheduling. It is widely recognized in African archival scholarship and is accessible through platforms such as African Journals Online (AJOL). Through its contributions, the journal strengthens cooperation among archival institutions in member countries and enhances knowledge sharing on best practices in information and records management.
