About the Symposium

For presentations from the Symposium, please see the Program page.

Inspired by UNESCO's Memory of the World Program, the Association of Canadian Archivists UBC Student Chapter (ACA@UBC) is organizing a seminar and conference aimed to opening an interdisciplinary dialogue among the custodians of the world documentary heritage—librarians, archivists, documentalists and museum curators—and the users of such heritage.

Our topic, Preserving the Memory of the World, is relevant to a wide and diverse audience including, but not limited to, archivists and librarians, other information specialists, historians, computer scientists, sociologists, anthropologists, political scientists and anyone interested in heritage and memory.
