Advocacy Committee

At its core, the mission of ART is to educatepromote, and advocate for the awareness and preservation of archival collections and the professionals who work with these collections.

As an extension, the Advocacy Committee serves as the unifying voice of the association by reporting on local, state, national, and international issues that impact archives and archivists; supporting equality and diversity within the profession; and providing resources and knowledge that can be used to strengthen the archives community, its repositories, and the general public by keeping informed of policies and legislation that directly impact services and access to information.

Committee members seek out potential speakers, locate host sites, coordinate refreshment ordering and meeting set up/break down, greet guests, and report on meetings for the Metropolitan Archivist.

Programming Committee members work with the Membership Committee to retain current members and cultivate new members, making sure that our organization remains relevant to the profession and inclusive to the entire archival community.

If you have suggestions about future programming events or speakers, tips on a host site, feedback on a particular meeting, or if you would like to join the Programming Committee, please contact the Director of the Programming Committee: programming@nycarchivists.org

The Programming Committee welcomes student members, retired professionals, and archives volunteers.

Can You Help ART with Meeting Space?

We are always in need of host sites that can accommodate upwards of 50 people between approximately 5:00 pm and 8:30 pm on weekday evenings. If your institution fits this description, please contact the Programming Committee. It’s great publicity for you and the Programming Committee members will work with you to ensure that hosting a meeting is not burdensome to your employer or to you.

Education Committee

The Education Committee is dedicated to providing low-cost workshops of interest to professionals in the archival profession.

A.R.T.’s Education Committee works with the Society of American Archivists (SAA), Metropolitan New York Library Council (METRO), and other organizations to bring in-demand training sessions and nationally-known instructors to the NYC area.

One of the Education Committee's responsibilities is to organize the New York Archives Week Symposium.   The 2013 NYAW Symposium was co-sponsored by the Center for Jewish History, with the topic of Disaster Planning for Archives and Their Communities. Symposium Schedule.

The 2014 New York Archives Week Symposium was held on Tuesday, October 7, 2014 with the theme of Financial Institutions and Archives. The Symposium was once again be co-sponsored by the Center for Jewish History.  

The Education Committee is also responsible for planning educational workshops and events throughout the year.  Recent events have included the Judicial Records Forum on June 4, 2014 at Fordham Law School, which was a full day event.  The forum was cosponsored by A.R.T., The Sedona Conference, The Electronic Discovery Institute and The Philip D. Reed Chair, Fordham Law School.  

Additionally, the Education Committee held a very successful four-part series on Records & Information Management Basics for Non-Records Managers.  This series was co-sponsored with the NARA and instructed by Lauren Barnes of Credit Suisse.  Based on feedback from this series, the Education Committee will be organizing industry-specific records management workshops in the near future. 

If you would like to join the Education Committee, have an idea for a workshop, or would like to see certain topics offered, please email the Director of the Education Committee, Rachel Harrison, at education@nycarchivists.org
