Mario Glauert serves as Honorary Professor for Preservation and Archive Management at the Department of Information Sciences, University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, a position appointed in 2011. Concurrently, he holds the position of Deputy Head of the Brandenburg State Archives and Head of Department I Central Services, responsibilities he has maintained since 2006. His professional trajectory demonstrates a seamless integration of academic scholarship with practical archival administration.
Glauert's educational background includes studies in History and German Philology at the Free University of Berlin (1988-1995), followed by specialized archival training at the Privy State Archives of Prussian Cultural Heritage and the Marburg School of Archives. His doctoral work culminated in 1999, and he qualified for the higher archival service in 2001 after completing his career examination.
His research interests span critical areas in modern archival science, with particular emphasis on digital transformation challenges, preservation methodologies, and the development of evaluation metrics for archival institutions. Glauert has pioneered concepts like 'Archive 2.0,' advocating for user-centered approaches and greater interaction between archives and their communities in the digital age. His publications reveal a consistent focus on practical applications of archival theory, addressing real-world challenges from climate control in archive facilities to strategic resource allocation.
Notable publications include 'Dimensionen der Digitalisierung' (2013), which analyzes cost structures and capacity requirements for digitization projects, and 'Was ist ein gutes Archiv?' (2012), which proposes a metrics-based rating system for archives. His work 'Archiv 2040' (2011) offers forward-looking perspectives on archive infrastructure development, while 'Aus den Trümmern lernen' (2009) provides critical analysis of risk management lessons from the Cologne archive collapse.
Glauert actively promotes collaboration between archives, libraries, and other cultural heritage institutions, emphasizing integrated approaches to preservation and access. His leadership extends to developing practical guidelines for archival work, including recommendations for handling mold-affected materials and establishing climate control standards for archive facilities.
