Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Association of Canadian Archivists : The Association of Canadian Archivists was formed in 1975 when the Archives Section of the Canadian Historical Association and other concerned archivists felt the need for an independent body concerned solely with archival science. The A.C.A. provides leadership for all persons engaged in the preservation and use of the records of human experience by facilitating communication and co-operation, promoting academic programmes in archival science and developing standards of conduct and responsibility.

The A.C.A. presented the needs and concerns of the archival profession before governments and other regulatory authorities. The promotion of the public's knowledge and appreciation of Archives and the functioning of archival institutions in preserving cultural heritage and identity is an important objective of the A.C.A.

The work of the A.C.A. is carried on by a number of active committees concerned with conservation, copyright, education, finding aids, freedom of information, local archives, publications and the drafting of a response to the Symons Report on Canadian Studies to mention a few. In addition, the A.C.A. publishes the bi-annual periodical Archivaria, a scholarly journal of international repute, to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and information.
