International Archives Week 2025

Archives are cool, hip, fun, quite participatory, and increasingly inclusive. Hooray! Once again, our volunteer-run organization joins the archival community in celebrating the International Archives Week.

If you are curious or passionate about archives, the International Council on Archives (ICA) provides a vast agenda of activities which take place in many countries. We proudly add to the festivities our first collection development campaign: COLLECTION CONNECTION. The ICA also offers fantastic webinars, in English, French and Spanish, over the coming days.

The theme this year is accessibility. It is timely for us, because we have just enabled user subscriptions on our website. Visitors can now create their page, album, gallery, group, and network. Happy #IAW2025 to us all!

Many ways to make waves

The National Volunteer Week is on in Canada, and we would like to add our voice in celebrating the amazing contributions that volunteers are making every day to enrich our collective experience. We could not do without their commitment and generosity.

Take this opportunity to visit our recruitment page and to browse our online collection. Make sure to find your way to make waves with us.

If boating makes waves, at CDIC we know how to preserve children’s take on boating fun. The Red and Green Boat below was drawn nearly sixty years ago in a school notebook. The young artist made sure the whole boat was visible, propeller included.
