Thank you @archivistsdotca As @DramArchivist says #keepcalmandarchiveon #SocialDistancing Practice #Caremongering

[ACA @archivistsdotca]

The ACA is concerned about COVID-19 and urges institutions to take proactive measures to protect the health of their employees. It’s time to close the archives to outside researchers and allow staff to make decisions about where they can work safely. https://t.co/MUoVJHFPEO
