Archives are the documented memory of the nation. They tell our stories and help us understand who we are as individuals and as a nation. They underpin every aspect of education, science, health, culture, law and the historic environment. Archives inform the future by helping us to learn from the past.
Why Archives Matter: Heritage, Memory and Identity is the second in a series of events organised by the Scottish Council on Archives to promote greater awareness of the importance and usefulness of archives to many different sectors including education; healthcare; architecture; cultural heritage, both local and national; archaeology, academia; and genealogical research. The conference will feature presentations from academics, historians, archivists, architects and representatives of community archive groups.
Speakers include:
Dr David Mitchell, Director of Conservation, Historic Environment Scotland
Emeritus Professor Richard Rodger
Fiona Sinclair, architect
Bruno Longmore, Head of Archive Depositor Liaison, National Records of Scotland
Dr Irene O'Brien, (SCA Chair), Senior Archivist, Glasgow City Archives
Dawn Sinclair, archivist, Harper Collins
Dr Ciaran Wallace, Trinity College Dublin
Ruth Honeybone, Lothian Health Services Archive
Dr Saqib Razzaq, Colourful Heritage
Harvey Kaplan, Scottish Jewish Archives Centre
A full programme will be available in early March.
