Address of the International Council on Archives on the occasion of the celebration of International Archives Day on 9th June 2015

Join the celebration of International Archives Day 2015 and promote your archive service!

All around the world archivists will unite on 9th June 2015 to celebrate the significance and achievements of our profession. Send us a copy of a document drawn from your collections which shows the locality served by your archive service; tell us about the image and, if you wish, provide us with a short message and the web address of your archive. The section for local, municipal and territorial archives of the International Council on Archives has prepared a site to display all the images and messages sent to us

To see what we did in 2014 go towww.internationalarchivesday.org. We hope that 2015 will be bigger and better with your help!

To participate, please send a jpeg image (max 800×800 px) of your chosen document, together with a short description of it in your own language by the 30th May 2015 to: m.langelaar@rotterdam.nl. If you offered an image in 2014, why not add a second one for 2015 – the website will accommodate a growing number of images over the years to come?
