History

The NAC supports the program of mass digitalization of the archival records in the state archives. It created the necessary technological infrastructure for this process.

Archival and Other Holdings

The National Digital Archive possesses a collection of audio- and visual holdings, which are a part of the state archival holdings. It possesses 15 million photographs dating from the half of the 19th century to the present time, and 30 000 audio recordings from 1919 to 2007. There are unique recordings of numerous important persons of the social, political and religion life. They mostly originate from the Polish Radio and the Free Europe Radio. An important part of the holdings is a collection of the films (2400) from 1928 to 1993. The most valuable films originate from the 20's and 30's. The NAC is creating two modern computer systems, which are the database of the state archives' holdings: ZoSIA (The Integrated System of Archival Information) and SeDAp (System of the Archival Digitalization). The NAC makes accessible over 150 000 photo scans and 20 000 descriptions of audio recordings.
