This special event will provide attendees with the opportunity to explore one of New South Wales’ major archival storage and access facilities through a guided tour of the Western Sydney Records Centre. The program will also include presentations and discussions focused on archival practice, professional collaboration, and school records within the State Archives Collection.
Designed as both a learning and networking opportunity, the day will bring together archivists, records professionals, and those working in school archives from across the profession. Attendees registering for the full day program will also have the opportunity to participate in afternoon sessions and connect with colleagues over a catered lunch.
The NSW Branch and NSW School Archives SIG look forward to welcoming members and guests for what promises to be an engaging and collaborative day of professional development.
Please note that gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options will be available.
