Digitalization of the record group C 20 I Oberpräsident Magdeburg. Allgemeine Abteilung (1815-1944) of the state archives of Saxony-Anhalt

Oberpräsident是1815年在萨克森省成立的普鲁士中央政权。它是一个监督和执行的政府机构。由于它监督国家当局的行政活动，三个地区政府（马格德堡、梅泽堡、埃尔福特）和其他省当局到1945年的通信也在这个档案馆藏中。此外，Oberpräsident有独立的行政任务，例如直接监督省当局对教会、学校和医疗事务的管理。Oberpräsident是关于今天萨克森-安哈特州过去普鲁士时期的基本权威，因此这些文件属于国家档案中最具历史意义的文件。此外，普鲁士的萨克森省包括一些领土，这些领土今天由勃兰登堡、萨克森和图林根联邦州管理，这突出了这些文件的跨区域重要性。由于其高质量和完全在线访问的档案描述，该收藏多年来一直是国家档案馆中使用最广泛的收藏之一，这也反映了这一事实。因此，计划在三年的推广期内对整个库存（约443线性米）进行数字化处理，以便有兴趣的各方能够使用这里提供的资源处理广泛的研究问题，而不受地点和时间的影响。东德时期的老式微型电影质量不高，这就是为什么这些电影在很长一段时间里没有作为一种媒介在阅览室里展示。特别是，由于普鲁士线缝合，在当时的拍摄过程中，内部边缘的信息丢失很高。因此，对原件进行数字化处理是必不可少的。

The Oberpräsident was the Prussian central authority in the province of Saxony, which was established in 1815. It was both a supervisory and executive governmental body. Due to its supervision of the administrative activities of the state authorities, the correspondence between the three district governments (Magdeburg, Merseburg, Erfurt) and the other provincial authorities up to the year 1945 is also represented in this archival holding. In addition, the Oberpräsident had independent administrative tasks, such as the direct superintendence of the provincial authority for church, school and medical affairs.The Oberpräsident is the essential authority in regard of the past Prussian period of today's Saxony-Anhalt and thus the files belong to the historical most relevant ones of the state archives. Furthermore the Prussian province of Saxony comprised territories, which are today under the administration of the federal states of Brandenburg, Saxony and Thuringia, which underlines the supraregional importance of the documents. As well this is reflected in the fact that, thanks to its high-quality and completely online accessible archival description, the collection has been for years one of the most widely used in the state archives. For this reason, a digitization of the entire inventory (approximately 443 linear meters) is planned during a promotion period of three years in order to enable interested parties to process a wide range of research questions using the sources provided here, independent of location and time.An older micro-filming from GDR-times is inadequate in quality, which is why the films have not been presented in the reading room as a medium for a long time. In particular, because of the Prussian thread stitching, a high loss of information on the inner edges arose during the filming at that time. A digitization from the original is therefore indispensable.
