@Pablester illustrating his points exceeding well with case studies from Luxembourg, Bristol, Norway.Archives are enriched by researchers and the entire ecosystem is increasingly enmeshed and entangled in the process! #icaabudhabi2023

[Museum of Croydon @MuseumOfCroydon]

It has been another fantastic day of talks at the Archives and Records Association Conference today!

Thanks to @ARAUK_IE @Pablester and @LSHTMarchives for the three inspiring sessions on diversity, inclusion and decolonising the archive. #ARA2022 @ARAconf

[Dr Peter Lester @Pablester]

Thanks Mari!

[Mari Takayanagi @satisfactory20]

Really interesting talk @Pablester #ARA2022 on exhibitions not just as outreach for archives, but as spaces for collaboration and inclusion - will look out for his book! https://t.co/JB2p8XFKg9

[Hope Fulton @hope_fulton]

A lot to think about following @Pablester’s discussion on exhibition as spaces of collaboration and inclusion. Exhibitions provide an opportunity for archivists to return the power of interpretation to the communities who are most qualified to speak on the material #ARA2022

[ARA UK+I Conference @ARAconf]

We've just wrapped up 'Exhibitions as Spaces of Collaboration and Inclusion' with @Pablester, featuring excellent case studies including @archivesplus and @statelibrarynsw!

[Library & Learning Services @UoLDWL]

Volunteer researchers have been finding hidden stories in our archives, funded by @HeritageFundM_E (a thread). @Pablester explains why our logo looks like it does, and why our motto is 'ut vitam habeant'. https://t.co/xJINWsxOxC
