Kamiński headed the Wroclaw Regional Bureau of Public Education prior to his election. During his term, the IPN faced a wide array of criticism calling for an overhaul or even replacement. Critics founds fault in the IPN being a state institution, the lack of historical knowledge of its prosecutors, a relatively high number of microhistories with a debatable methodology, overuse of the martyrology motif, research methodology, and isolationism from the wider research community. In response, Kamiński implemented several changes, including organizing public debates with outside historians to counter the charge of isolationism and has suggested refocusing on victims as opposed to agents.<sup id="cite_ref-Mink2017_17-5" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Institute_of_National_Remembrance?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Mink2017-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"> <h4 id="Jarosław_Szarek"><span id="Jaros.C5.82aw_Szarek"></span>Jarosław Szarek</h4> </div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1(cropped).jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg/100px-Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="100" height="128" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="479" data-file-height="614"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 100px;height: 128px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg/100px-Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg" data-width="100" data-height="128" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg/150px-Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg/200px-Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek_1%28cropped%29.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </span></a> <figcaption> Jarosław Szarek </figcaption> </figure> <p>On 22 July 2016 <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Jaros%C5%82aw_Szarek?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Jarosław Szarek">Jarosław Szarek</a> was appointed to head IPN.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Institute_of_National_Remembrance?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He dismissed Krzysztof Persak, co-author of the 2002 two-volume IPN study on the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Jedwabne_pogrom?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Jedwabne pogrom">Jedwabne pogrom</a>.

He says that the IPN has created opportunities for many history specialists who can carry dedicated research there without the need for an appointment at another institution, and for training young historians, noting that "the IPN is now the leading employer of young PhD students and PhDs in history specialized in contemporary history, ahead of Polish universities".<sup id="cite_ref-vb_29-5" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Institute_of_National_Remembrance?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-vb-29"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p> <p>Historian <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Dariusz_Stola?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Dariusz Stola">Dariusz Stola</a> states that the IPN is very bureaucratic in nature, comparing it to a "regular continental European bureaucracy, with usual deficiencies of its kind", and posits that in this aspect the IPN resembles the former Communist institutions it is supposed to deal with, equally "bureaucratic, centralist, heavy, inclined to extensive growth and quantity rather than quality of production".<sup id="cite_ref-Stola_2012_48-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Institute_of_National_Remembrance?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Stola_2012-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p> <p>An incident which caused controversy involved the "<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wildstein_list?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wildstein list">Wildstein list</a>", a partial list of persons who allegedly worked for the communist-era Polish intelligence service, copied in 2004 from IPN archives (without IPN permission) by journalist <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Bronis%C5%82aw_Wildstein?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Bronisław Wildstein">Bronisław Wildstein</a> and published on the Internet in 2005.
