The student club archives in Uppsala are interesting because they occupy somewhat of a special position as a community archive. Their archives occupy a unique position from a professional point of view, as they usually are handled by students who lack archival education or even some general knowledge of archives. The situation for the student club archivist is special because it can be people without prior knowledge who will take care of the archives. When these people take on the role of an archivist, they shadow the professional archivist role when they have to manage an archive at their office similar to a professional archivist. There is also a problem about how to define the word archivist. There is a large gap in the definition of an archivist since both a professional and a hobbyist can consider themselves as an archivist. But where does the boundary between a hobby archivist and a professional archivist part? This aspect contributes to the possibility of a student club archivist to identify as an archivist even though they have a voluntary based position. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how the archivists at the student club identify with their position, if they identify themselves as archivist, what the learning of the so-called professional identity looks like and examine the problems that can arise with regard to the archives being conducted on a voluntary basis. Hopefully, this study can contribute to a greater understanding of how the professional identity of the archivist position in non-profit community archives can be manifested in the non-professional person, and how it extends the aspect of identity formation and community that community archives are often associated with when it comes to research on community archives. This is a two years master's thesis in archival science
