About AERI The Archival Education and Research Institute (AERI) was established in 2009 to advance the field of archival studies by: * Creating a dynamic community of researchers, teachers and students to help mentor doctoral students and academic staff in areas such as thesis preparation, grant writing, publishing, and career development. * Advancing curriculum development in archival studies at all levels—undergraduate, graduate/postgraduate and continuing education. * Furthering current research development inside the academy and in practice through paper presentations, posters and workshop activities. * Fostering interest in future collaborations intra- and internationally. These week-long annual working institutes are designed to strengthen education and research and support academic cohort-building and mentoring. Institutes are open to all academic staff and students at all levels working in archival studies, as well as archival professionals and others engaged in archival education, research and scholarship, broadly conceived.
