This subreddit is for news, questions, discussions, experiences, digitization and preservation methods, or anything else related to archivists and archives in general. As a profession we provide access to historical records for historians, students, genealogists, and the general public. Technology has changed our profession absolutely and a new paradigm is emerging. We must adapt vigilantly. This subreddit will serve as a place to keep track of these changes. Additionally, because everyone is a potential archivist, this reddit supports and advocates personal archiving. Every family needs at least one person keeping organized records and photos of their generation for posterity.
