Archival Advice

Are you affiliated with a heritage institution in Northern or Central BC and require some basic archival advice?

As the Archives Association of British Columbia's regional representative of the Central Interior-BC Northeast region, we offer assistance to the archival community in order to: encourage the growth and development of an effective archival network; advise on the use of accepted archival principles and practices for the administration of archives; advocate for the region and the region’s archival organization, to both the AABC and the greater archival community at large; and, promote the activities and programs of the AABC. We act as a resource for archivists and archival repositories in the region by answering questions or directing them to the appropriate resource.
