Through these documents, viewers not only feel the talent and creativity of each individual, but also see the spiritual life and social history of the country, the noble human values that are nurtured along with the rich cultural history of the Vietnamese people in many aspects.
Among them, many works and research projects before coming to the "common home" on the shelves of the archives have been shared, have come to life, have been named and recorded in scientific forums, under the spotlight or in typical events of different industries, professions and fields. These are typical, valuable and rare archival documents of the nation, contributing to enriching the composition of the Vietnamese state archives.
Also at the event, a discussion on personal documents of origin took place, with the participation of speakers who were individuals and representatives of individuals and families who donated documents to the Center, along with representatives of archives and management agencies operating in the cultural field.
At the seminar, delegates shared and introduced their personal journey of creation and work, the process of preserving valuable documents as well as dialogue with archival agencies in preserving, conserving and promoting the value of documents in the future.
