Project whishing to discuss the role of dissemination and communication in archiving practices in the Nordic countries as well as to ensure and develop the dissemination of archives to citizens in the future.
The project will provide a status of where the dissemination of archives is heading in the Nordic archives through a webinar. The aim is to ensure the development of a field that started in the late 1990s in the Nordic countries as a reaction to the archives’ lack of focus on users. The webinar will help to secure the development of archival dissemination by presenting good examples and methodological developments in the Nordic archives.
The project has a high degree of Nordic relevance as it wants to create a network and a professional community between Nordic archive disseminators. In addition, the project undertakes the important task of communicating knowledge from Nordic archives to ordinary citizens.
