2016 International Archives Congress

The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), in partnership with the Provincial Government of Pampanga and the Association of Tourism Officers of Central Luzon (ATOCEL), Inc., will be holding the 2016 International Archives Congress on November 08 to 10, 2016 in Clark Freeport, Pampanga.

In the previous iterations of the Congress, the NCCA has invited country archival experts to discuss practices, issues, and concerns in the field within national and local contexts. This year, with the theme “Archives in the ASEAN”, the Congress will gather archivists, registrars, record managers/officers, librarians, faculty, office secretaries, and members of professional associations on archives nationwide and from around the ASEAN to share the best practices on archival management in the region. The NCCA has seen the opportunity for the audience to leverage their current practices in line with global and international benchmarks, and to foster international cooperation in this endeavour.

The Congress will have a combination of lectures, and workshops from different leaders in the archival practice from the countries in the ASEAN region. There will be exhibitions, as well, and a whole-day heritage tour to wrap-up the event.

A registration fee of Five Thousand Pesos (PhP 5,000.00) for local participants or One Hundred Fifty US Dollars (USD 150.00) shall be charged to live-in participants based on quadruple sharing which will cover for food, accommodation for three (3) days and two (2) nights, free whole-day heritage tour, and conference materials/kit. Meanwhile, a registration fee of Three Thousand Pesos (PhP 3,000.00) shall be charged to live-out participants, which will cover the expenses for food, whole day heritage tour, and workshop materials/kit.

1st Archives and Records Management Census

Good afternoon everyone!

We would like to once again invite all records managers and archivists in the community to please participate in the first Archives and Records Management Census in the Philippines.

ARC Philippines is part of an effort by the University of the Philippines School of Library and Information Studies, funded by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts, to provide baseline data on the current state of archiving and records management in the country. The census focuses on identifying and understanding the profession through profiling and examining the background, characteristics, and needs of archivists and records managers across varying institutions and contexts. As a pilot census, this endeavor hopes to provide for the first time a scientifically sound measurement and a suitable framework for future studies on archiving and records management in the Philippines.

This census is specifically targeted to personnel who are currently employed in an office handling records and/or archives in their day-to-day operations. Every response is important as it will assist the UP SLIS in developing a graduate program / certificate course on the interrelated disciplines of archives and records management which will be offered to all individuals working in the records/archives profession.

We are encouraging you to please answer both the individual and institutional surveys. Feel free to share these links to your fellow archivists and/or records managers. We could also visit your institution to administer our surveys.

Thank you very much!

Advancing Libraries, Archives and Museums (ALAM 2015) Seminar-Workshop

The University of the Philippines Library Science Alumni Association (UPLSAA, Inc.), in cooperation with the UP School of Library and Information Studies (UP SLIS), will hold the 4th Advancing Libraries, Archives and Museums (ALAM) Seminar-workshop entitled “Making LAMs as the Third Place: Rethinking Perspectives, Reinventing Spaces” on 4-6 March 2015 at Hotel Essencia, Real St., Dumaguete City.

ALAM 2015 aims to build a sense of community in LAMs and recreate these learning communities to bring together personnel working in libraries, archives and museusm and its clients in a welcoming and comfortable place outside the home or workplace. This year’s seminar-workshop presents a laddered approach to reinvent the current set up of LAMs into a third place. Third places, a concept popularized by Oldenburg (1991), are anchors of the community life and facilitate and foster broader, more creative interaction – home being the first place and workplace as the second place.

To achieve this goal, the following topics will be presented:

v  Changing Roles and Definitions of LAMs: The Concept of the Third Place

v  Towards a better design: The Art and Architecture of LAM Spaces

v Empowering Librarians and Information Professionals by engaging communities through rethinking collections, resources and services

v LAMs Redefined: Strategies in Marketing and Promotion

v Impact Evaluation Measures for LAMs: From Core to Specific

Seminar fee is P5,000.00 for live-in participants (inclusive of accommodation March 4, 2PM to March 6, 12NN; registration fee; meals – AM & PM snacks, breakfast, lunch and dinner, instructional materials; kit; and other expenses). Live-out participants shall be charged P4,500.00 (inclusive of registration, meals – AM & PM snacks and lunch; & instructional materials; kit; and other expenses). For those who will register before 18 February 2014 will have an early-bird rate of P4,500.00 for live-in participants and P4,000.00 for live-out participants.
