Abstract
In the field of archives professional identity is constructed around the twin notions of archivists as trusted custodians and archival institutions as trusted repositories This essay examines the historical links between professional identity and trust and the ways in which those links are being attenuated and reconfigured in the digital world It argues that new information and communication technologies and shifting currents of thinking inside and outside the field of archives are challenging and transforming the archival understanding of the relationship between trust and professional identityThis is a revised version of a keynote address delivered at Questions of Trust Archives Records and Identities an international conference sponsored by the Forum for Archives and Records Management Education and Research for the UK and Ireland in association with Network of Archival Educators and Trainers July 5–6 2010
