Special Interest Sections (SISs)

Are there aspects of your SIS that you would like to highlight? Content can include things such as past and future activities, annual reports, recorded presentations from past conferences, or anything else that you'd like to make available online or specifically in the Members Only section of the website. Please contact your SIS Chair, the ACA Office, or Director-at-Large Andrew Chernevych at dal1@archivists.ca for assistance.
