The challenges and changes that archivists and information
management professionals face are based on the need to manage,
preserve and make accessible our collections be they paper, film,
audio visual or digital formats. Join us in Brisbane in 2012 for a
congress program that is focused, innovative and interactive.
The congress will examine our ‘climate of change’ through the
themes:
Sustainability: Archives recognising archival and information
management challenges and working together on strategies to ensure
access, preservation, security, and longevity of evidence and
information.
Trust: Archives supporting good governance and accountability,
advocating ethical and professional processes, developing standards
and gaining international acceptance.
Identity: Archives helping the community to connect with their
heritage, discover their individual stories and protect their
rights; strengthening the value, impact and influence of archivists
and information managers.
