Annual Archives Lecture

In the fall of every year Queen’s University Archives holds its Annual Archives Lecture. The Lecture is meant to highlight the archival collections which are held by the University and serves as a public forum to disseminate and discuss the research that is, or has been, carried out using those collections. The Archives Lecture has run every year since its inception in 1983.
