During the Soviet time period, archives centralized a preserved a vast holding of church and vital records dating from 1721-1917. In the archives of the former Soviet Union, material is filed by record group - '''''Фонд. (Ф.)''/Fond'''. A record group contains the records of a specific organization, portion of an organization, or individual. Archives also create collections as opposed to record groups, in which records of different organizations or individuals are filed together on some logical or thematic basis. Thus, in some archives, vital records of different religions can be filed together. | During the Soviet time period, archives centralized a preserved a vast holding of church and vital records dating from 1721-1917. | ||

In the archives of the former Soviet Union, material is filed by record group - '''''Фонд. (Ф.)''/Fond'''.

A single volume, files, or even a single sheet of paper is an item - '''''Дело (Д.)''/Delo'''. Each item is given a title based upon the record type and contents. Items are usually filed chronologically by the earliest year of information found in that item. Within a particular year, the items are supposed to be filed by degree of significance. | |||
An inventory - '''Опись (О.)/Opis''' is a list of items in a record group or collection. While filing by record group reflects authorship, description by inventory reflects content, equivalent to a table of contents in a book. The inventory identifies the title assigned to each item, the sequential number, and information on inclusive dates and number of pages. The inventory is the key to finding records in an archive. | |||
'''Each item in an archive is defined by three numbers: fond, opis, and delo. <br />''' | |||
