The year 2020 was in many ways an extraordinary year, which applies also to the case of archival work. With the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, various institutions prepared their work procedures according to their own perceptions of working in crises, and the same was in the television archives of Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia). In this paper, we will present a comparative analysis of the operation of the television archives of RTV Slovenia in the epidemic, with an emphasis on strategies of measures that directly affected the quality of work. We will present the management of the television archives in the first and second wave and consequently in the third wave, describe the lessons learned from the preparation for work in crises, the problems or shortcomings and their solutions in further work. By analyzing the first and the second wave, we showed big progress in archival processing of archival material. The results of the preliminary analysis show a large gap between work in the first and the second wave. We estimate that different preparation and implementation of lessons learned from the first wave contributed to more successful work results of the television archives in the second wave.
