This study emphasizes the connection between the sites of memory and the
national identity, having as main objective to highlight the institutionalization of
the cultural memory. Two main sites of memory are analysed: the archive and the
library, as representative for the cultural memory. The ideological and political
influences are also revealed. The final part of this paper points out new challenges
in the global digital age.
