Description (French)
Le projet porte sur des archives audiovisuelles qui incluent les archives sonores et les images en mouvement des premiers acteurs et organismes ayant œuvré aux Îles-de-la-Madeleine. En ciblant en priorité les fonds plus fragiles, le Centre d'archives régional des Îles procédera à la numérisation et au catalogage de ces archives afin d’en faciliter l’accès tout en préservant leur intégrité. Ce projet sera suivi d’un événement commémoratif audiovisuel qui se tiendra au début de la deuxième année du projet, soulignant du même coup les 165 ans de la poste aux Îles-de-la-Madeleine et les 110 ans de l’histoire du ponchon.
