Canadian archival community
The Canadian archival community consists of professionals and organizations dedicated to preserving, maintaining, and providing access to Canada's historical records and cultural heritage. Archivists work in institutions such as archives, libraries, and museums to ensure records—whether paper, digital, or multimedia—are carefully preserved for future generations. The community also promotes best practices in record management, supports research, and collaborates on national initiatives to safeguard Canada's history. It plays a vital role in maintaining transparency, supporting accountability, and fostering understanding of Canada's diverse narratives.
