Abstract

Archives have been divided into two groups in both theory and the practice in the Archival Science. The first is “public archives” and the other is “private archives”. There are ownership, usage right and belonging of these documents on the basis of this classification. The identification of the private archives has become important because private organizations and capital have an effective role in both production and management of the State and many countries have had to make new regulations in the archive legislation. Legislation in our country has been examined on the scope of our study and the current situation has been revealed. In order to understand the legal regulation very well the studies abroad have been included in the study, and practices have been examined. In the last part of the study necessary factors related to the private archives in National Archive Law have been detailed.
