Description
This project will establish an on-site Archives space within the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami office. At present, ITK's Archives are stored in the office basement or in an off-site third party storage facility. The ITK Archives currently consists of an estimated 1200 boxes of paper records, photos, tapes, film and other media, as well as nearly 40 maps and other large format records. The contents of many of the boxes in off-site storage are currently unidentified. An important component of this project will be creating a high-level inventory for the entire Archive.
Description (French)
Ce projet permettra de créer un espace d’archivage au sein du bureau de l’organisme Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK). À l’heure actuelle, les archives de l’ITK se trouvent dans le sous-sol du bureau ou dans un centre de stockage hors site appartenant à une tierce partie. Ces archives se composent actuellement d’environ 1 200 boîtes de documents papier, de photos, de cassettes, de films et d’autres supports, ainsi que de près de 40 cartes et autres documents de grand format. Le contenu de nombreuses boîtes stockées hors site n’est actuellement pas identifié. Un élément important de ce projet sera la création d’un inventaire de haut niveau pour l’ensemble des archives.
Expected Results
The aim of this project is to make ITK's Archival records discoverable and accessible so that they can be used by ITK staff, partner organizations, and Inuit.
Expected Results (French)
Ce projet a pour objectif de rendre les documents d’archives de l’ITK consultables et accessibles afin qu’ils puissent être utilisés par le personnel de l’ITK, les organisations partenaires et les Inuit.
