Archives Week

While most Archives Week activities occur in October, there is no fixed, nationally recognized date for the events. Instead, each association or state selects its own dates, often timing them to coincide with other events of local signficance such as statehood days. This year, some celebrations began in late September while others won't occur until mid-November. Utah is unique in designating the entire month of October as Archives Month.

The Council of State Historical Records Coordinators (COSHRC) actively encourages participation in Archives Week by repositories and organizations nationwide. We are pleased to support these efforts by providing access to a variety of Archives Week resources through our website. We believe that Archives Week provides an excellent opportunity for educating the public and resource providers about what archivists do and why it is important.

The number of archival associations and repositories sponsoring Archives Week activities each fall continues to grow. In 2003, Archves Week events were held in some 32 states, up from 23 in 2002. We hope to see that number increase again in 2004. Over the next year, COSHRC will be working with the State Coordinators and SHRABs to encourage all states to participate in Archives Week programs during 2005.
