Archive Awareness is an ongoing campaign. Through a series of events throughout the year, it aims to celebrate and uncover the amazing wealth of material contained within archives to a wider audience.
Why are we doing this?
The potential of archives to illuminate people's lives is being severely inhibited by their low profile and the lack of awareness of their value amongst the general public, politicians, decision makers and funding bodies. With the increasing popularization of history, the power of ICT, the growth of new partnership working and more attention at government level, there's been no better time to start raising our profile.
