摘要

长期以来,科学研究一直是通过合作进行的,无论是在富有的自然哲学家和他不知名的科学仆人之间,如罗伯特·波义耳和他的实验室助手之间,还是在交换自然历史标本和信息的记者之间,在他们的出版物中相互署名在现代,尤其是在战后大科学兴起之后,它变得更加协作和多学科化。然而,许多努力获取和保存科学记录的档案工作者依赖于传统的收集方法,这些方法只关注孤立的个人和组织。虽然务实的考虑在其中发挥了作用,但这也是由于普遍存在的文化神话主导了我们对科学实践的理解;孤独的科学研究人员独自进行实验和理论研究。惠康图书馆的基因组收集项目试图通过收集人类基因组计划(HGP)之前和期间产生的记录来解决这个问题。我们采用了一种基于文档策略的方法,探索了HGP周围的景观,并专门设计用于捕获定义项目的协作工作和相互关联的关系。《收集基因组》的一个结果是增加了档案管理员和科学家之间的联系。由于下面概述的原因,我们档案管理员在记录生命周期的较早阶段就参与了记录保存:在记录是半动态的而不是准备存入档案的时候。这意味着要与唱片创作者(科学家)接触,他们在很多情况下仍处于职业生涯的中期。事情很快变得很明显

Collecting Genomics: Documenting Modern, Collaborative Science
Scientific research has long functioned through collaboration, whether between the wealthy natural philosopher and his unnamed scientific servants, as in the case of Robert Boyle and his laboratory assistants, or between correspondents who exchanged natural historical specimens and information, crediting each other in their publications.1 In the modern era it has become only more collaborative and multidisciplinary, particularly since the postwar rise of big science. And yet many archivists striving to capture and preserve scientific records rely on traditional collecting methods that focus on individuals and organisations in isolation. Whilst pragmatic considerations play a part in this, it is also due to the pervasive cultural myth that dominates our understanding of scientific practice; that of the lone scientific researcher experimenting and theorizing in isolation. The Wellcome Library project Collecting Genomics has attempted to tackle this through its work collecting records produced in the lead up to and during the Human Genome Project (HGP). We adopted a documentation strategybased approach that explored the surrounding landscape of the HGP and was specifically designed to capture collaborative working and the interconnected relationships that defined the project. One consequence of Collecting Genomics was increased contact between archivists and scientists. For reasons outlined below, we archivists became involved in record preservation at an earlier stage of the record lifecycle: at the point at which records were semicurrent rather than ready for deposit in an archive. This meant engaging with record creators (scientists) who in many cases were still in the middle of their careers. It quickly became apparent that
