Conditions of Access: Navigating Restrictions in LAC Collections
Library and Archives Canada is pleased to offer this pre-conference workshop to share perspectives and open dialogue on the legislative restrictions that present barriers to accessing collections. What is the landscape in which we are all working? What authorities are applying restrictions to information? What challenges does this pose to Indigenous communities in gaining access to their records? And how do we navigate this landscape together? This workshop is a space to understand each other’s perspectives, learn from each other’s expertise, and generate ideas for enriching the research experience. We look forward to meeting you.
