ARCHIVES AWARENESS WEEK 2025 |
The Archives Association of Ontario has designated April 7th to 11th as Archives Awareness Week.
Now, more than ever, as divisions persist across Canada, community remains vital to the work of archives. It is our duty to document, bridge gaps, and collaborate with the communities we serve, ensuring all voices are represented and heard. Therefore, our theme for 2025 is: ”Reflecting the Communities that Build Us”. This week is an excellent opportunity to celebrate both your archives and the communities they serve, the importance of documentary heritage within your community, and your organizational achievements. |
