*The conference has been designed for people who work with personal

services concerned with children and their families, including social
workers, lawyers, administrators, researchers and care leavers. *

involved in the use of records for research, teaching purposes,
litigation, and review by the people who were the subjects of the
records. A wide range of speakers will provide inputs from different
areas of expertise. It is intended to explore the issues, opportunities
and complexities involved in the location, accession, retention,
management and use of child care archives.*
* * *The conference will also include a workshop session in which
delegates can contribute their own areas of expertise or concern, with a
view to identifying any action which may need to be undertaken
concerning child care archives.*
